	Domenico Pacitti Archive \| Pacitti interviews Severino Antinori for The Times (London)
		SEVERINO Antinori, Italy's charismatic pioneer of medically assisted reproduction and godsend to the country's estimated 18 per cent of sterile couples, is fighting for survival.
		Antinori, 55, has been christened by the national press "the miracle father of impossible children", but the Roman Catholic church feels that this is one miracle it can do without.
		Antinori, who despite international recognition and a string of respected publications, has been unable to secure a tenured post, is scathing about the state of university research.

	Italy cloning guru says babies on their way
		Severino Antinori called himself the "cultural and scientific co-ordinator" of the top secret cloning projects, and said one of the pregnancies was in the 10th week, one in the seventh and one in the sixth.
		Antinori said the women, who had undergone successful ultrasound screenings in recent weeks, were all volunteers who had paid nothing to become pregnant with clones.
		Antinori gained fame after helping a 62-year-old women become a mother using a donated egg in the early 1990s and he told Wednesday's news conference that one thousand babies had now been born using his fertility treatment.

		Severino Antinori of the University of Rome and director of the International Associated Research Institute, discusses human cloning on Tuesday at a hearing at the National Academy of Sciences in Washington held to help the academy decide whether the United States should clamp a moratorium on the practice.
		Antinori and other researchers told the gathering that studies on the possibility of cloning a human, chiefly as a means of allowing infertile men to produce children, were already under way.

	cloning : 100% extra
		Dr Antinori, who runs a fertility clinic in Rome, plans to make his method of human cloning available to couples who cannot have children by any other means - for example, when test tube fertilisation is impossible because the man produces no sperm.
		Dr Antinori told an Italian newspaper recently that more than 1,500 couples had volunteered as candidates for his research programme, and that he planned to start producing embryo clones in November.
		In 1998, Dr Antinori told the BBC it would be immoral to try to clone humans just for the sake of it, but he justified his work as an attempt to help infertile couples.

		The taskmaster in the scrubs is Severino Antinori, a physician whose reputation among infertile couples is far overshadowed by his international fame as the man who wants to clone a human being.
		Antinori was born 56 years ago to small landowners in a village of Abruzzi, a region of central-southern Italy.
		After his family moved to Rome, Antinori signed up for medical studies, where he soon discovered his intolerance for, as he puts it, the "academic mafia that was ruling the university." Still, he met Caterina Versaci there, and the two married shortly after they received their medical degrees.

		Antinori and Zavos do not have the expertise to implant a cloned human embryo themselves, but they could hire scientists who do.
		It is doubtful if Antinori and Zavos would have quite so many women willing to pay to be implanted with cloned embryos if they told the truth about the likely consequences: aborted foetuses, dead babies, or, if they are lucky, severely handicapped children who die early.
		Antinori and Zavos will not have told them, possibly because the people who they deceive most completely are themselves - they seem actually to believe their own publicity.
