Impressive biological breakthroughs
Hoping to serve a better life, scientists have gone from adventure plans to reckless and extraordinary studies. Many projects have to abandon for many reasons, but also sparked a glimmer of hope as a new breakthrough for further in-depth studies. Here are the typical works.
Mouse with human ears
This image is the most eloquent demonstration of the ability to transplant organs between species. However, until now, experts still cannot judge where the direction of this technology will go. Anyway, the experiment also shows the possibility that a synthetic structure of this species can be transplanted to another species, and cells between different species are completely replenished and nourished by another species. .

The mouse carries the human brain
There have been many studies aimed at creating artificial intelligence, but providing gray matter to . mice is unique. In a similar effort, scientists implanted mice with human brain genes to increase about 1% of the gray matter for this animal. Another team also plans to create mice with brains that contain 100% of human brain cells. What will happen someday, when the mouse begins to inherit the typical attributes of the person?

" Plant " stem cells
In 2005, researchers at the University of Nevada-Reno bred a herd of sheep with a number of human organelles that were integrated and developed within their bodies. These animals are injected with stem cells at different stages of development in hopes of developing into human organs. This work was later exploited by researchers as the basis for the ability to use animals such as ' factories ' to produce and supply alternative organs such as liver, tissue .

Pigs carry human cells
At least at the cellular level, this possibility has occurred. In 2004, scientists focused on studying human infections, and to test, they injected human blood-producing stem cells for pigs. The unexpected result is a hybrid product that is present in pig blood, including pig cells, human cells and a ' doped mixture ' of both species.

Goat milk for silk
From the idea of the ability to produce the most durable biofilms in nature like spider silk, a private Canadian biotech company has fed dairy goats containing similar fibers. And, more specifically, this silk is very suitable for the human body and can be used for sewing wounds, repairing muscle tissue and especially producing alternative ligaments.

Descendants of humans and chimpanzees
Fortunately, this image does not exist in reality, but the ability of modern technology can completely allow the creation of similar hybrid products. A few years ago, some scientists had intended to carry out crossbreeding between humans and chimpanzees. However, after harsh criticism, the plan was canceled. But, a similar mutation could happen in . Hollywood.

Pork glow
This is a unique innovation born in Taiwan National University - China laboratory. Pigs carrying green phosphorescent phosphorescent light; and more specifically, not only skin, but also the five organs of the five organs also have a charming green color. Reason? Because the scientists injected fluorescent proteins into pigs in their infancy in the hope that their visible tissues will help in human disease studies .
