The scientists will use the transgenic pigs to study human disease. Because the pig's genetic material is green, it is easy to spot.

So if, for instance, some of its stem cells are injected into another animal, scientists can track how they develop without the need for a biopsy or invasive test.

kind of makes sense... maybe

And for one I'll be glad to see more of this reaserch, since it might help to cure dh's leukemia.
