Source: Creating a sperm or egg from any cell? Reproduction revolution on the horizon
Summary
Scientists are exploring a new reproductive technology involving in-vitro derived human gametes or IVG, which could create human eggs and sperm from any cell in a person’s body. Experts are discussing the scientific advances in IVG and the potential ethical, social, and regulatory ramifications of the technology, which could prove “life-altering” for infertility, enabling people to have children with their own DNA regardless of age or gender.
