Abstract excerpt
The northern white rhinoceros (NWR; Ceratotherium simum cottoni ) is functionally extinct, with only two females remaining alive. Efforts to rescue the NWR have inspired the exploration of unconventional conservation methods, including the generation of artificial gametes from induced pluripotent stem cells and somatic cell nuclear transfer. To enable the technologies required for these approaches, we used comple...
