California startup Conception is developing in vitro gametogenesis (IVG) technology to create human eggs and sperm in a lab. The process involves reprograming adult cells to become sperm and egg cells. The technology has great therapeutic potential but raises legal and ethical concerns. It could potentially enable people struggling with infertility to have their own biological children, but also raises ethical concerns as it could lead to the creation of offspring with certain traits using gene editing tools. The technology is expected to be approved by the FDA and potentially be widely used.
