The eggs would be generated from the amniotic sac after a mother gives birth (or miscarries). To get your OWN egg, you would have to have conceived a child and developed a pregnancy previously (as well as stored the embryonic stem cells). Also, the headline is misleading. They have opened the way to a future possibility. They have not grown a human egg yet. Still, Technion is amazing and science is way ahead because of the unique out=of=the=box thinking of its world-class scientists.
