She was admitted to the oncology floor recently with an even rarer symptom, a disfiguring full-body rash that, her sister Doris Del Castilho explains, "started as tiny flakes of skin and then got bigger and opened up like a flower."

That may be in part because his technique treated the cells more gently. It's also possible that injecting just the nucleus introduced fewer contaminants into the host cell...
