Assembly line “man-made” come true?Scientists successfully cultivated the first human embryo model, experts explain the global uproar
“Scientists have created synthetic human embryos using stem cells. This is a breakthrough that avoids the need for eggs or sperm.” On June 14, local time, the British “Guardian” published in its According to an exclusive report.
Now, these scientists have announced the latest results, but it has caused a global uproar. This is a blatant challenge to the bottom line of morality. Is the assembly line “man-made” a reality?
Every development in the field of synthetic artificial embryos is accompanied by intense ethical controversy. As models of human embryos live longer and look more and more like real embryos, there are concerns that the model embryos will one day grow into real babies.
Just like the dystopian world described by Huxley in “Brave New World”, human beings breed offspring in an assembly line in embryo factories called “breeding centers”.
According to an expert interviewed,The “Guide” issued by ISSCR is only a guideline for the industry. More importantly, government departments and research funding agencies of various countries should issue relevant management policies as soon as possible. “Policies on research ethics must keep up with it. Ethical red lines must be planned and implemented very strictly. This is very important for the sustainability of research on human embryo models.”
