Ethical concerns aren't an issue when it comes to embryo contribution experiments in other species, including livestock and non-human primates; such experiments have been attempted and failed. The sad truth is that we only have functional naïve pluripotent stem cells for mouse and rat models, but not for human or any other species. The synthetic embryo work is amazing, keep up the good work!
