In this episode, we dive into the reproductive tech revolution – IVG in particular - and hear that biological children for same-sex couples are much closer than many people believe. The same goes for the end of infertility, a significant speed-up of agricultural yields, and a variety of other thought-provoking applications. We sit down with Jeff Hsu, co-founder of Ivy Natal, to discuss their breakthrough approach to creating functional egg cells from ordinary skin or blood cells. Unlike traditional methods, Ivy Natal uses "direct meiosis induction" to skip multiple conversion steps.Learn why we will see male-male couples with children before female-female couples, whether people could have children by themselves, how this technology can also potentially be applied to de-aging, how the regulatory environment influences the research directions, and much more.
