$300,000 burger: short on flavour, say tasters
They bit, they chewed, but had hoped for more flavour. Two volunteers who participated in the first public frying of hamburger grown in a lab said Monday that it had the texture of meat but was short of flavour because of the lack of fat.

India-born researcher successfully grows human veins in lab: Reports
A Mumbai-born Indian doctor made a landmark breakthrough in medical science, as the first biologically tissue-engineered vein grown from a patient's own stem cells has been successfully transplanted into a 10-year-old girl with portal vein obstruction, dramatically enhancing her quality of life, reports The Lancet.
