Cloned Neanderthals in the offing?
A report from the German magazine Der Spiegel came out Monday that a
Harvard geneticist wanted to clone a Neanderthal: Palaeolithic Park? Harvard professor seeks 'adventurous' woman to give birth to baby Neanderthal. Professor George Church plans to bring our long-extinct relative back to life using artificial DNA. John Hall, Monday 21 January 2013 http://www.independent.co.uk/news/sc...l-8460273.html However, he now says he only believes this is a topic that should be now discussed: I'm no Dr Moreau! Harvard professor says he is NOT looking for a woman to give birth to a Neanderthal, blaming reports on a poor translation.

... A report from the German magazine Der Spiegel came out Monday that a Harvard geneticist wanted to clone a Neanderthal: ========================================= Been done, there are many specimens of homo neanderthalensis writing to USENET every day with only a few homo sapiens sapiens responding. -- This message is brought to you from the keyboard of Lord Androcles, Zeroth Earl of Medway. When I get my O.B.E. I'll be an earlobe. |

Here's the original interview in Der Spiegel: Interview with George Church: Can Neanderthals Be Brought Back from the Dead? January 18, 2013 – 07:41 PM http://www.spiegel.de/international/...-a-877634.html You can see he doesn't say he intends to perform this cloning. But reading between the lines you can deduce he favors it being performed. His book mentioned is he Regenesis: How Synthetic Biology Will Reinvent Nature and Ourselves [Hardcover] George M.
