Scientists create synthetic human embryos without egg or sperm in groundbreaking breakthrough.
TL;DR Summary
Scientists have created synthetic human embryos without using sperm or an egg, using stem cells. The breakthrough could offer insights into genetic disorders, miscarriages, and other medical issues. However, the development presents ethical and legal challenges, and voluntary guidelines may be needed to manage the use of synthetic embryo models in research settings. It would be illegal to implant a synthetic embryo into a woman, but similar work has been done using animal embryos.
