Scientists will 'combine creative innovation, genomic engineering and advanced tissue engineering to start producing sustainable luxury materials from prehistoric species' It builds on previous research which involved extracting a fragment of collagen from a T.Rex fossil, found in 1988 in Montana .

Now they will use this fragment to artificially recreate what a full-length T. Rex collagen sequence would have looked like.

Once they have made sure it looks genetically similar to that of the TRex ancestors, they will incorporate it into their own lab-grown leather cells and 'grow' it.

This will produce a dense network of collagen similar to the middle layer of skin.
