NBC: Scientists are working on growing Tyrannosaurus skin and making bags out of it

Science 1 May 2025 2373

A group of bioengineers from the UK is working on growing tyrannosaurus skin and creating premium bags and clutches from it. This is reported by the NBC television channel.

"The team strives to create an environmentally sustainable skin using the collagen of this beast," the TV channel reports.

According to NBC, scientists are trying to grow skin from the fossilized fragments of an ancient predator. If successful, scientists will produce the skin from such an animal for the first time.

At the same time, the TV channel notes, with reference to Tom Ellis, professor of synthetic genomic engineering at Imperial College London, that growing real tyrannosaurus skin is possible only in the "very distant future."
