Time magazine's technical, scientific and health journalists have announced the cloning of a dog Snuppy is the most unique invention in 2005. This award is published every year according to Time. It will have a huge effect.

The five-month-old dog was a successful Afghan clone led by the research team led by Professor Woo Suk Hwang. It is known that the Korean scientists used to duplicate the dog Snuppy is similar to what British scientists used to clone the Dolly sheep, the world's first cloned animal.

This time scientists took a sample of cells from the ears of an adult Afghan dog to clone Snuppy. Currently Korea is quite developed in terms of cloning and stem cell techniques. Last month, the country launched the world's first stem cell bank, clearly demonstrating its ambition to become a world stem cell center.
