Comment Comment by lettergram Even though I shared this - I’d like to add I’m having trouble believing it. I’d really like to see replication on this one.Although it’s possible to change cells, once a cell has taken a form, it’s used resources. Having a cell shift to a new form seems nuts.It may be possible, but I’m dubious. I find it more likely that their experiment(s) were contaminated, which seems relatively easy to do in this case.Anyone with more experience have any thoughts?I minored in bioengineering, but that was years ago, so I have limited knowledge. parent lettergram 7 years ago
