hybrid rule

phdepressed @sh.itjust.works - 10mon

To clarify these "hybrids" are for organ transplant. This research was approved in 2019. https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/japan-approves-first-human-animal-embryo-experiments/

And researchers have already started trialing transplant of humanized organs in very limited ways in just the last couple years. https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/pig-to-human-organ-transplants-will-finally-begin-clinical-trials-this-year/ https://www.science.org/content/article/here-s-how-scientists-pulled-first-pig-human-heart-transplant

Acc to my prof they gave the green lights to make one batch of bioengineered embryos which will he terminated before 22 week mark, which is the point that you can get an abortion on jp

Note: the human-animal hybrid will likely be a child for 18 years, however you can still ensure the next generation will have catgirls (or boys, or even enbys).

BECAUSE OF COURSE THEY ARE!

Not because they're Japanese, but because the world has billionaires enough that all questionable developments are on the table, And Japan is no stranger to defenestration of ethics or principals.

We (the medical sector) have been experimenting with using live mice and rats to grow cloned human body parts for transplants, since donations are scarce and rejection risk is high. Being a successful transplant patient, as it is, as a terminal illness, just less terminal than someone with a failing organ (or on a treatment regimen to keep them alive. So if this is all they're talking about it's not really news, but progress may have been made (e.g. a successful transplant of a cloned organ)

We've already had people clone dogs and an oligarch who tried to clone an heir in the 1990s when we were failing at cloning sheep. Human-animal concubines, garden hermits and courtiers are the natural next step.
