'A scientific technique that could allow same-sex couples to create their own biological child in a laboratory should be allowed under law, a group of influential scientists said on Monday.
The experts, all international leaders in embryology research, called on ministers not to restrict such "important" research.
The laboratory creation of eggs and sperm from other cells could offer hope to thousands of people unable to have children of their own.
