...technology to produce in vitro meat is almost in place, says Mironov, but "there are bottlenecks" in the process - namely scale and cost. Given the current technology, it would cost $1 million to turn out a 250g piece of beef. The problem boils down to producing a cell-culture medium in large enough quantities at a low enough price (it's the same problem facing tissue engineers who are attempting to grow artificial organs for human transplant).

While many of us may object to the Vatican's blanket condemnation of stem cell research, it's still good to have powerful global voices like the Pope's warning us not to play Frankenstein.
