The video explains a scientific process where DNA from an eight-month-old baby's skin cells is transferred into a hollow human egg cell. Using chemicals, the egg multiplies to form an embryo genetically identical to the baby. Stem cells are then extracted from this embryo, which is destroyed in the process.
