Bio engineering is one of the sciences that have been for a while in the spotlight when it comes to the public opinion and the media. Genetic cloning became one of the most controversial issues linked to bioengineering. The first successful cloning in mammals, the famous Dolly the sheep case has brought up to the attention of the people that there might be more to science than it was known until the 1990s. Many species of animals have however been cloned or attempted to be cloned along the time, but when it comes to cloned people the issue suddenly becomes more sensitive.
The first ever hybrid human clone is known to have been created in the late 1990s. It had been however destroyed 12 days later.
