Weight difference in babies borne at 40 weeks and babies born at 23 weeks (0.5kg)

Requirements of Developing a Foetal Support System.
Pumpless, sterile, blood flow, 14% lowered oxygen requirement.

BioBag
. It is meant to collect organic waste and be turned into compost along with that organic waste. All body systems matched normal growth rates producing a health lamb.

Self Assembling Embryos
You can combine embryonic stem cells and extra-embryonic trophoblast cells together and they undergo organisation like a normal embryo. Means we can still study human development with a dramatic reduction in need for actual human embryos.

CRISPR
A gene editing tool you can use to change or add DNA within a cell.
