A secret that has just been revealed from British scientists was shocking when they were holding about 150 hybrid embryos between humans and animals.

This work was secretly performed in a UK laboratory over the past 3 years.

According to Daily Mail , since the embryonic breeding law was enacted in 2008, there are about 155 embryos that breed humans and animals.

Scientists use the implantation technique of human cells into animal cells , and get human cells mixed with animal embryos. Scientists say the technique is used to develop stem embryonic cells, which are used to treat some diseases that are now considered incurable.

Currently there are 3 laboratories at King London College, Newscatle University and Warwick University (United Kingdom) licensed to conduct these studies. All three labs have been shut down due to lack of capital but certainly in the future there will be many similar experiments.

However, there are still two directions of opinion on this issue. Mr. Josephine Quintavalle, in the group of moral life, said: ' Why scientists must keep it a secret, if they are proud of what they are doing. Why do we need to put this question on parliament so this issue is brought to light? '.

However, the lead author of the report, Professor Robin Lovell-Badge, of the Medical Research Council of the National Medical Research Institute, said the reason for doing these experiments was to better understand development. of people and soon the method of treating serious diseases. He said: ' As a scientist, I feel it is a moral imperative to pursue this research, but we should control it more closely .'

However, the question of why scientists have to do so secretly for three years is still a big question, no reasonable answer.
