New Human-Like Synthetic Embryos Could Uncover Cause of Miscarriages, Scientists Say
. And while the recent project has created a buzz surrounding the opportunities to study human life, it has raised questions about how to regulate the research.A set of guidelines are in the process of being established by lawyers, ethicists, and scientists in the UK to “ensure that research on synthetic embryos is done responsibly,” Prof. Roger Sturmey, a Professor of Reproductive Medicine at Hull York Medical School said in the Science Media Centre statement.
development still shows potential, according to Prof James Briscoe, associate research director at The Francis Crick Institute, said in a statement. “They could provide fundamental insight into critical stages of human development,” he said.“These are stages that have been very difficult to study, and it’s a time when many pregnancies fail.” He added, “Fresh insight might lead to a better understanding of the causes of miscarriages and the unique aspects of human development.
