DID YOU KNOW OF ARTIFICIAL EMBRYOS?

-
  In the past years we have heard about artificial insemination, incubation, surrogate babies  etc.  When you hear these words you think of the embryo or babies.
               Well looks like embryologists are not done with their inventions. Embryologists working at the university of Cambridge in the UK have grown realistic -looking  mouse embryos using only stem  cells. **No sperms. No eggs **

   Yes, if you thought an embryo could only be formed using a sperm and an egg, that fact is now wrong with the outcome of this new research. Magdalena  Zernicka- Goetz who  headed the team says her "synthetic" embryos probably couldn't have grown into mice. Nonetheless, they are a hint that soon we could have  mammals born without an egg at all. The next goal of this team is to make an artificial embryo out of human stem cells, work that's being pursued at the university of Michigan and Rockefeller university.
               Artificial embryos however pose ethical questions. Religion might as well be an opposition to this new development. What if the embryo turns out to be something different ? Are our scientists going too far? Are we prepared if "human artificial embryo" becomes a living dream? The Extremists would say "What if it turns out to be alien genetically mutated bodies?

Uber Download Free ► Uber’s ATG division remains the centerpiece of constant argument within the company. Because Uber takes a loss with every ride due to driver payout, many argue that automated driving technologies are the key to the company’s future, especially as rival ride-sharing services and auto manufacturers race to create the world’s first viable driverless cars. Supporters argue that by moving away from a driver-based model, Uber can curb losses and create a much higher profit margin, which is especially important now as the company plans to go public in 2019.
