Scientists Successfully Breed Mice From Two Females Scientists at the Chinese Academy of Sciences say it was done using a new type of gene editing technology. The feat may help researchers better understand mammalian reproduction. The process still carries significant
ethical and safety questions. In the study, a total of 29 bimaternal mice were produced using 210 embryos. Researchers said some of them still
showed "defective features." Despite the potential of the latest study, scientists say the technology just isn't ready for practical application. King's College London, via statement
