they don't want to cover prenatal care by someone who is pregnant by in vitro fertilization. are there limits that the religious preferences that an prosecutor can do? >> of course there are limits. this is the law thatber' talking about, the law the supreme court is going to be examining, it's a balancing test. you have to balance the damage to religious freedom against the government's interest, what it's trying to regulate on the other hand. in this case it's very strong because you're talking about very large fines and penalties if you do not comply with this mandate and the government's interest is weak. the government has already given out many exemptions from this law as many as 109 million americans, that's a third of the u.s. population, may be on plans in 2013 that are grandfathered. that means those plans don't have to comply with the contraceptive mandate and don't have t to comply to many parts f the affordable care act. it would be different if you're talking about a different type of care, any form of discrimination. the supreme court said back in the 1980s the

another example is the wild west of medicine, in vitro fertilization. there are hundreds of invitro fertilization centers now across the country, and in in vitro fertilization, you'll see that the likelihood of success after a woman goes -- well, a couple go for to try to get pregnant, the likelihood of success with in veto fertilization resulting in a successful pregnancy is about 5% to 75% depending on what institution you go to. and the average is 45%. it's a bell curve. i could give you lots of examples like this across all different walks of medicine, and what you see is the same pattern, a wide difference between the top and the bottom and the shape of the curve where most of us are grouped in the middle. but the one that really fascinated me the most was cystic fibrosis. and that's because cystic fibrosis care works the way we want all of medicine to work. so, you know, for hernia repair, for example, the ones who are grouped toward the top seem to be the ones who have the most experience. but in cystic fibrosis care, this is a condition that chi

it is that in order to do that you have to do in vitro fertilization. when an embryo is three days old, it is halfway down a woman's fallopian tube and good luck trying to find it. know exactly where the embryo is in three days. it is where you put it in the petri dish. ivf is a pain. unfair things in life, men are at an advantage. no man has ever been hospitalized from sperm donation. the 200,000of american women who go through a a --st each year end up as end up in a hospital as a result. and every year somebody dies. getting eggs is a problem. -- getting eggs is a problem that has limited ivf. that is going to change because we will be able to take stem cells and turn them into heart muscle cells, liver cells, brain cells and eggs and sperm. not the human embryonic stem cells you have heard so much about, although we could do it with that, but about six years ago, the japanese invented induced stem cells. you take normal cells, skin cells, hit them up with that cocktail of things and they start acting like embryonic stem cells. in fact, at different

patrick and his former girlfriend had gus through in vitro fertilization. a decision they made together. now since they have broken up she will not let him see his young son, and because of a loophole in california law, sperm donors are not allowed to, i guess, get rights to their family. he's appealing this case. but it's another -- it's another story where men are not allowed to see their kids. i think there's a benefit to two parents in a household. this is a father who wants to have a role in his son's life and they won't let him have it. >> why won't they let him have it? >> because of this custody law. i'm tweet more about it if you want more info for standing up for gus. it's a growing trend of keeping dads out of their kids' lives. you have a dad who wants to be involved and they won't let him you're up. >> it's time for -- i hate these people. >> i know. that's not attractive. let's roll this. this is a public proposal that happened on cnbc. >> i love your laugh. i even love the way you dance. will you marry me? >> yes! >> obviously that's very nic

he has done mice in-vitro vertlyization using mouse egg derived from mouse stem cell and mouse sperm derived from mouse stem cell and made healthy mice. don't try this at home yet. mice are not people. medicine will finally cure us all when they figure out how to turn us in to mice. we're not there yet. ten years from now, twenty years from now, a couple wants to have babies, they'll do the following: they'll go a clinic, the woman will give up a skin cell, which will be turned to a stem cell, the man will give up sperm probably the old fashioned way. cheap and easy. magazine costs, video cost, those are low. they will make embryo. how many will they make? well, right now with ivf that's limited by how many ripe eggs you get in a procedure. eight, 10, 15, maybe 20 in a healthy young woman. making them from stem cells, the sky limit. 100, 1,000. 10,000 embryos. and then each of those embryos at day three gets a genetic test. that will be the limiting factor. the cost of doing the test will let's say couples stop with 1,000. stop with 100. they have 100 embryons. for each of those they

process where human entry on extensive those derived from excess embryos that were left over after in vitro fertilization. could, in fact, result in cell lines that could be user federal fund. we can't support those lines but once they have been derived, they can send them interest to us making it clear that proper consent was obtained and weakened and certify those can be used for research. there are over 200 of those now and they are being widely used and it taught us the great deal about health and disease. apps even more of an exciting advance came about six years ago with the realization that you don't have to necessarily derived such potent stem cells from interested you can derive them from any of us. this whole business that was figured out that you can take a skin biopsy, you can grow the cells out of the skin biopsy, you can add just for carefully chosen genes, and those cells will become what we call capable of turning themselves into liver or heart or kidney or brains from the individual. the open potential here is enormous but let me give you one example. what we would really l
