Scientists have developed anartificial womb that has been successfully used to incubatehealthy baby lambs for a week, an advance that may one day beable to save the lives of extremely premature human babies.

London: Irish scientists have recently identified a new human organ that has existed in the digestive system for hundreds of years. Named as the mesentery, the organ connects the intestine to the abdomen and had for hundreds of years been considered a fragmented structure made up of multiple separate parts. However, researchers led by J Calvin Cof...
