Live animals from artificial eggs

Live animals created from artifical eggs grown in a petri dish!
Japanese Scientists breakthrough is remarkable. They took tissue cells from the tail of a mouse, reprogrammed them as stem cells and then turned them into eggs in the lab. Thereafter, the eggs were fertilized and the resulting embryos were implanted in female mice. This led to the birth of 11 healthy pups.
This might also be relevant for the human application in the future.
