No men OR women needed: artificial sperm and eggs created for first time

www.guardian.co.uk...

Doctors are developing artificial wombs in which embryos can grow outside a woman's body. The work has been hailed as a breakthrough in treating the childless.
Scientists have created prototypes made out of cells extracted from women's bodies. Embryos successfully attached themselves to the walls of these laboratory wombs and began to grow. However, experiments had to be terminated after a few days to comply with in-vitro fertilisation (IVF) regulations

thats from 2002


first we have artificial wombs - now they can `make` gametes , and you can allready choose characteristics about the child.


it wont be long before faster/stronger/smmarter than the average `human` - all for a cost ofc , will be on the menu
