Teaching stem cells to swim

Scientists in the UK have created the first laboratory-synthesized sperm cells.

Imagine in a few years going to the store and seeing a tube in the Pharmacy aisle with the brand name: 'I Can't Believe It's Not Semen!'

Pictured and totally unrelated - a sperm-shaped USB drive. What do you want from me? I couldn't find a work-safe picture of sperm in a test-tube......

An Ernest contribution.
