Researchers have used skin cells to make primitive artificial sperm and eggs in a move that could transform fertility treatment.
Scientists in Cambridge made the sex cells by culturing human embryonic stem cells for five days under carefully-controlled conditions.
They then showed that the same process can convert adults' skin tissue into early-stage sperm and eggs.
