cell, they might be able to use drugs to temporarily freeze the
cell in the middle of
division, stick in the needle of a micromanipulator to suck out the embryonic DNA, squirt in DNA from an adult animal, and then kick - start the process of reprogramming — hours, perhaps even days after an egg had been fertilized.
