RE: The return of the giants from our past?

in #science8 years ago

I attended a seminar from a harvard researcher (George Church) who is attempting to stitch back together the woolly mammoth genome and re-create the animal using an elephant, a while back. It was an interesting talk, and though they appeared to be a ways off from completing the project.

Sort:  

They are actually trying to first get an hybrid between the Asian elephant and the woolly mammoth and then see where they go from there,it's not going to be an easy project

Yep :) curious to see how it will go.
