Are these scientists trying to create a human-monkey hybrid? Researchers at the Salk Institute for Biological Studies in California have conducted a controversial experiment that entails growing human ...

In a breakthrough new study, scientists have created human-monkey chimera embryos for the first time. These chimeras pave the way for more accurate models of human biology and disease, which could ...

Depending on your point of view, the creation of an embryo that is part-human and part-monkey is either a great opportunity for medical experts to create organs and tissues for human transplantation; ...

The part-human, part-monkey embryos were kept alive for 20 days, giving researchers enough time to learn about how animal and human cells communicate Georgia Slater is a staff editor on the Parents ...

Scientists are locked in debate over the necessity of creating chimera embryos that contain both monkey and human cells. A study released on Thursday showed that human cells can indeed grow when ...

Scientists have captured global attention this week after growing part-human, part-monkey embryos in a new study that pushes the limits of such research to date. The team led by the US-based Salk ...

April 22 (UPI) --Scientists have created the world's first monkey embryos containing human cells in an attempt to investigate how the two types of cell develop alongside each other. The embryos, which ...

Scientists injected dozens of human stem cells into developing monkey embryos, and the resulting hybrids survived for up to 20 days in lab dishes. These human-monkey embryos could someday serve as ...

In a ground-breaking experiment, researchers have successfully created the first human-monkey chimera. The work, published in the journal Cell, describes the the first embryo containing both human and ...
