Re: Human embryo cloned
" In a similar experiment, however, we succeeded in prompting human eggs—on their own, with no sperm to fertilize them—to develop parthenogenetically into blastocysts."
As a third year biology student, I find this line of text in the report worrisome. The whole idea of this research is to create stem-cells for transplant ( I'm all for that), but who would want to risk having haploid (only 23 chromosomes, not 46) cells implanted into someone? The risk of mutation or cancer would seem to be unacceptable.
