- Colossal Biosciences engineers synthetic eggs
Colossal Biosciences announced the development of a synthetic egg device that successfully hatched 24 chicks, marking progress toward the company's goal of resurrecting extinct species like dodos and moas. The technology uses ex-vitro reproduction to mature fertilized eggs in a controlled lab environment rather than relying on individual surrogates. The company plans to share the technology with conservationists and research labs, though the process has not yet been peer reviewed.
