Ectogenesis

Ectogenesis (from the Greek ἐκτός, "outside", and genesis) is the growth of an organism in an artificial environment,[1] outside the body in which it would normally be found, such as the growth of an embryo or fetus outside the mother's body, or the growth of bacteria outside the body of a host.[2] The term was coined by British scientist J. B. S. Haldane in 1924.[3][4]
