In a surprising turn of events, scientists at Portugal's Gulbenkian Science Institute, have inadvertently engineered a mouse embryo to grow an extra pair of legs in place of genitals. This unexpected result was discovered during a study primarily focused on spinal cord research. The project was led by developmental biologists Anastasiia Lozovska and Moises Mallo, who expressed surprise at the outcome, stating "I didn't choose the project, the project chose me."
