That title is what I could see in our future.
This article from CNN interests me: Scientists hope to clone extinct species
Researchers at the Riken Center for Developmental Biology in Kobe, Japan, used cells from mice that had been frozen for 16 years at -20 Celsius (-4 degrees Fahrenheit).
They extracted the nucleus and injected it into eggs whose DNA had been removed. Several steps later, the scientists were able to clone the mice.
“This is the first time a mammal has been cloned from a sample stored at conditions reasonably close to what might be expected in permafrost,” Teruhiko Wakayama, who led the study, said in a statement.
“(It) gives some hope for those who might seek to clone extinct species from frozen carcasses.”
Does this not remind you of movies where people freeze themselves after death in hopes science can bring them back later? If the economy were better I am sure there would be an upstart company based on this due to this news article. We’re getting closer!
