Summary
One of a four-part series presenting research and breakthroughs in the field of human genetics. In this segment, pioneering methods of human cloning give a paralyzed Texas doctor hope that he will walk again. Meanwhile in England, a couple prepares for the result of cloning the natural way: triplets. Shows the latest advances in stem cell development and genetic science. The efforts of Dr. José Cibelli, head of research at Advanced Cell Technology, which led to the first artificially cloned embroyo, are paralleled with genetic replication as it occurs naturally in the womb. Professor Lee Silver, molecular biologist at Princeton University, and Nobel Prize-winning cell biologist Sir Paul Nurse comment on how these innovations have changed human life
