Description
(Original Caption) Egg-dipping may be strictly an Easter event for some people, but for a group of scientists in Massachusetts, it's a year-round project. They have found that if they dip an egg into the right kind of hormone solution, they can change the sex of the unhatched chick from what it started out to be. Here, Dr. Gregory Pincus of the Worcester Foundation for Experimental Biology, dips a container with eight eggs into a hormone solution. Dr. Pincus heads the birth defects research program at the foundation with the aid of a grant of $49,409 from the National Foundation-March of Dimes.
