Scientists at Newcastle University have created part-human, part-animal hybrid embryos for the first time in the UK. An unfertilized cows egg was cut open by the XYClone laser, and virtually all the genetic material was extracted. DNA derived from a human skin cell was then injected into the egg. By using electric shock, the hybrid embryos started growing. It grew for 3 days to 32 cells. The embryo is 99.9% human and 0.1% cow. They hope to grow them for 6 days to extract the stem cells.
