    Scientists are calling for more tests to ensure that artificial sperm created are identical to their natural counterpart.

    A more distant possibility is the creation of sperm from a woman's cells, allowing a lesbian couple to have a child.

    Nayernia produced spermatogonial stem cells from female ESCs, but they lacked genes needed to mature.

    An article shedding light on this field has been published in the journal Stem Cells and Development.
