Jeremy Block Cloning Attempt Gone Awry!

attempted at the SunBelt Ag Expo, October 16, 2007

Three generations of scientists. From left to right are myself, my ex-student Jerry Malayer (now Dean for Research at Oklahoma State University College of Veterinary Medicine) and two of Jerry's ex-students, David Goad, and Akhilesh Ramachandran (both now at Nomadics, Inc.). Taken in Stillwater Oklahoma, June 5, 2006

Amber Brad's first IVF calves - and they're twins! The embryos from which these calves were derived were produced in the lab, transported to Bolivia, and transferred into the Holstein cow shown above. Jeremy Block performed the transfer. Calves were born in August, 2005.

Are you my Daddy? Lulu, an IVF calf born at North Florida Holsteins, ponders its co-creator Jeremy Block. The embryo was produced by Moises Franco and transferred by Jeremy Block. The 88-lb heifer calf was born July 3, 2005 and the photo was taken August 9, 2005.

First IVF calf produced by Moises Franco. The calf (Honey) was an 80 lb beef heifer out of a Holstein cow from North Florida Holsteins and born May 4, 2005. The embryo was cultured in SOF supplemented with IGF-1. The picture on the left was taken in June, 2005 and the picture on the right was taken August 9, 2005.

Soto et al. (Am. J. Reprod. Immunol., 50, 380-388, 2003) makes the cover. Note - the article was highlighted by the USDA (get the pdf file)

An early scene from the UF Dairy Science Program

This photograph was taken April 8, 1915 by Professor J.M. Scott, who started the UF dairy herd from a nucleus of cows brought from the Ag Expt Station herd at

Lake City when the University was founded in 1905. The photograph is entitled Three Jersey Bulls of Fla. Agric. Expt. Sta. and is taken outside Floyd Hall, one of the earliest buildings on campus and which housed College of Agriculture departments for most of its existence. The original dairy was located nearby.

Jeremy Block Goes National!!

Shown is a photo submitted on the AP Wire of our own Jeremy Block.

The caption reads as follows:

REPRODUCTION RESEARCH

Jeremy Block, graduate student in the University of Florida's Institute of

Food and Agricultural Sciences, examines the development of embryos from

dairy cattle in a research project designed to improve the reproductive

rates of farm animals. Supported by a $1.5 million federal grant, the

research will help small and medium-sized dairy farms during the summer

when hot weather reduces animal reproductive rates. (AP photo by Eric

Zamora, University of Florida/IFAS)

Large IVF-derived bull calf
The calf, which was born on December 20, 1999, weighed 218 lb at birth. The photo
was taken at 2 days of age. Also shown is Rocio Rivera, who produced the calf using the lab's standard IVM/IVF/IVC protocol (CR1aa, + serum, no co-culture). The calf died on December 26, 1999.
