Research on cells similar to fertilized eggs using human iPS cells “certain regulations required”. In the future, the expert committee will hold discussions and consider what regulations should be.
This was reported at a meeting of the Cabinet Office's Bioethics Committee held on the 6th. The working group will compile the results of the study into a final report, and the expert Committee will then proceed with discussions on the form and specific content of the regulations. It is possible that as research progresses, it may become possible to create a state close to that of a fetus.
