Re: Genetic modification of human embryos
interesting (yet a little scary) stuff!
"Out of every 100 fertilised eggs, fewer than 50 reach the early blastocyst stage, 25 implant into the womb and only 13 develop beyond three months."
i guess thats why so many embies dont make it through the process.

Ugg those statistics are upsetting. Makes it feel impossible that my IVF is going to work.
