For the first time, an international research team led by Chinese scientists has created embryos that are part human and part monkey, sparking hopes of someday growing human organs for transplants, ...

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 ...

A team of scientists reported for the first time Thursday they have created embryos that are part human and part monkey and grown them in a lab for up to 20 days, a controversial practice that ...

Researchers have grown human cells in monkey embryos with the aim of understanding more about how cells develop and communicate with each other. Juan Carlos Izpisua Belmonte at the Salk Institute in ...

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 ...

The idea first came to co-founder and chief science officer Leila Strickland in 2013, after she heard about the world’s first lab-grown burger. A cell biologist by training, Strickland wondered if ...
