🌟🌟Did you know??🌟🌟

On July 5th, 1996, the world entered the age of genetic revolution with the birth of Dolly the sheep!🐑 Born not from a single parent, but from a ground-breaking technique🌐, Dolly became the first mammal cloned from an adult somatic cell🔬.

Dolly's creation wasn't magic💫, but a scientific feat. Cell from a sheep's mammary gland was reprogrammed to create a whole new organism! Roslin Institute (The University of Edinburgh) achieved that feat!!

Dolly's journey involved a whole team: a donor Finn Dorset ewe, a Scottish Blackface ewe who donated the egg, and another Blackface ewe who acted as a surrogate mother👩‍👩‍👦. That's a global #collaboration!!

Dolly had a shorter than average life (6.5 years). However, she not only had a #healthy life but even gave birth to 6 lambs 🐑🐑🐑🐑🐑🐑.

Dolly's creation opened doors to advancements in regenerative medicine and #biotechnology, offering hope for the future 🔮of #healthcare.

Although Dolly's story sparked a global conversation on the ethics of cloning, today, she's a legend, with her remains preserved at the National Museum of Scotland.
