Scientists Say They Have Grown Human Eggs To Full Maturity In A Lab.

reports that scientists have, for the first time, grown human eggs in a laboratory from the “earliest stages in ovarian tissue all the way to full maturity.” The scientists from two research hospitals in Edinburgh and the Center for Human Reproduction in New York published their results in the journal Molecular Human Reproduction Friday. Professor Evelyn Telfer, one of the leaders of the study, said, “Being able to fully develop human eggs in the lab could widen the scope of available fertility treatments.” Independent experts praised the work as “an impressive technical achievement.” https://www.reuters.com/article/us-health-human-eggs/scientists-grow-human-eggs-to-full-maturity-in-a-lab-idUSKBN1FT00P
