Wanted: 'Adventurous woman' to give birth to Neanderthal man - Harvard professor seeks mother for cloned cave baby

    Professor George Church of Harvard Medical School believes he can reconstruct Neanderthal DNA
    His ambitious plan requires a human volunteer willing to allow the DNA to be put into stem cells, then a human embryo

They're usually thought of as a brutish, primitive species.

So what woman would want to give birth to a Neanderthal baby?

Yet this incredible scenario is the plan of one of the world’s leading geneticists, who is seeking a volunteer to help bring man’s long-extinct close relative back to life.

Professor George Church of Harvard Medical School believes he can reconstruct Neanderthal DNA and resurrect the species which became extinct 33,000 years ago.

I don't know a lot of gals who would volunteer to be known forever as the mom of a Neanderthal...

It'll fail. And probably the second or third time too. But eventually, it'll succeed. Then what?

Just because some kollege prof wants to go down in history.

Just saw something on PBS about the evolution of man....a lot of 'white' people have some Neanderthal DNA in their DNA code and 'blacks' from Africa have none.

OK DUmmies, call me Hitler or racist but not both.

Ohhhhh I saw that also.  They also said something that the once thought of Neanderathal's being slow was wrong.  Much bigger brains.    But when it's facts or stats they will still deny it.

Maybe that woman who doesn't want her son to be a gentleman should sign up.
