Adding to the ongoing debate over the authenticity of scientist Hwang Woo-suk¡¯s cloning research, Munhwa Broadcasting Corporation will air a program tomorrow questioning the veracity of his cloned cow.
MBC TV’s PD Notebook, a current affairs program which has been questioning Dr. Hwang¡¯s research, provided a preview of its next show, claiming that two of the three cloned cows may be fakes. The preview said that the DNA of the cloned cows did not match those of the donors.
A Seoul National University team led by Dr. Hwang said it cloned three cows with funding from the Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry.
