Mouse has two mummys and no daddy

Science gets weird.

This sounds like a feminist dream.

By deleting key sequences of DNA in embryonic stem cells harvested from female mice, Chinese researchers successfully kicked off a new generation of the tiny mammals without the need for males to fertilise any eggs.

These fatherless mice not only made it to adulthood, they also went on to have babies of their own, demonstrating the method is a vast improvement on earlier attempts to assist reproduction without the need for both a male and female parent.

Nvm it's too late, feminists have been found trying to implement this into humans to replace men!
Jokes aside, this is a pretty weird experiment

Good one.

Fun, until you realise it's ~~still just artificial insemination~~ cloning!

This is a Science & Technology thread- inappropriate content subject to deletion at a minimum.

Was that directed at me, Norton? The subject is certainly science and technology. It was reported on the Science Alert website, after all.

Nope- just a few treating this like a General Nonsense thread and the posts were deleted

Ah, thanks. I didn't see those.

This is a mile stone for the ultimate goal: programmable synthetic life form. From designer bacteria to designer eukaryotes, it is just the beginning

I'm a fan. I like things that may vaguely lead towards frogpeople.

Maybe in the future, designer humans.

Seriously would you want part of your cells be fused with frog genes? Like frog skin pigmentation genes into your skin cells?
