Multiple sclerosis (MS), a disease of the nervous system, typically has

symptomsofuncontrolledmuscleresponses,weakness,paralysis,andvision

difficulties. Researchers believe that MS occurs as a result of the body’s

Scientists in Japan have created an artificialwomb. In it, they placed

goat fetuses, which developed for up to three weeks. The device is

composed of a clear plastic box that is filled with fluid at 37°C and

connectedtovariousmachinesthatmaintainvitalfunctions.Insidethe

clear plastic box, the fetus is connected to a dialysis machine that
