Scientists grow whole model of human embryo, without sperm or egg
admin 2023/09/07 01:19Scientists have grown an entity that closely resembles an early human embryo, without using sperm, eggs or a womb.
The Weizmann Institute team say their "embryo model", made using stem cells, looks like a textbook example of a real 14-day-old embryo.
It even released hormones that turned a pregnancy test positive in the lab.
This kind of research could have significant implications for understanding early human development and testing new medical treatments.
