A stem cell scientist, Hui Zhen Sheng's most noteworthy paper is one she published in August 2003 in a Chinese journal called Cell Research. She showed for the first time that an animal egg can be used to make an adult human cell revert to an embryonic state and her work had important implications raising the possibility that scientists could use animal eggs to clone human embryos for research purposes, skirting the need for precious human eggs.
