MPs vote for human-animal hybrid embryos - Telegraph
May 20th, 2008 | by MikeS | | Post to NewsCloud »In a debate that covered the range from pure science to bioethics to science fiction images, British legislators voted earlier this week to allow stem cell researchers to work with animal-human embryos. This means that researchers will be able to inject human DNA into empty cow or rabbit eggs. Depending on where people stand on the bioethics continuum this has been seen as either a huge leap ahead of research in other countries or a leap into uncharted and shadowy medical territory.
