In 1962, Gurdon cloned a frog by transferring an intestinal cell nucleus into an egg cell, proving that all body cells contain the same genes and that the specialization of mature cells is reversible. His achievement laid the groundwork for subsequent research into stem cells, including Yamanaka's successful creation (2006) of embryonic-like stem cells in the laboratory from adult cells of the same organism. Gurdon's work continues to focus on the reprogramming of egg cells, with the goal of creating an unlimited supply of embryonic stem cells from adult cells.
