...work on ovarian tissue. Researchers have been performing experiments aimed ultimately at transplanting such tissue from fetuses--either aborted or miscarried--into infertile women. Fetal tissue is a rich source of eggs. A five-month fetus has cells that can produce about 7 million eggs, in contrast to the mere 400,000 or so that survive to a woman's puberty. Researchers have suggested using this tissue to establish egg banks for infertile women, who could then give birth to children who did not carry their genes--children whose biological mothers had in fact never been born...

She hopes to make better use of the couple's chemistry than the original pilot did, and she will replace all six supporting players...
