Dolly The Sheep Enamel Lapel Pin Badge

Dolly the Sheep, (born 1996) was the first mammal to be cloned from an adult somatic cell via the genetic engineering process of nuclear transfer.
The nucleus of a cell from the mammary tissue of an adult sheep was used- leading to Dolly being named after Dolly Parton.
Dolly’s scientific legacy is considerable, particularly in the field of stem cell research as her cloning was evidence that pluripotency could be induced in cells.
Even if you don’t realise it- you owe Dolly. And Dolly deserves your admiration and affection.
