How can we reliably and objectively characterize the speed and various stages of embryonic development? With the help of artificial intelligence! Researchers present an automated method. Animal ...

Then researchers placed blastoids and embryos donated after infertility treatments inside the little device and watched it ...

Scientists have created a stem cell-derived model of the human embryo in the lab by reprogramming human stem cells. The breakthrough could help research into genetic disorders and in understanding why ...

A new study from the MRC Laboratory of Medical Sciences (LMS) in London, UK reveals how ancient viral DNA once written off as ...

The image shows cross sections from four different developmental stages in the early embryo from gastrulation (flat) to the end of neurulation. Unexpectedly, the study revealed that stem cells that ...

Researchers have used stem cells to develop new human embryolike structures that model the earliest stages of fetal development so realistically that they even secrete hormones that can turn a lab ...

By engineering a system replicating the womb lining with high biological accuracy, researchers at the Babraham Institute and ...

The model allows scientists to study interactions between the womb and embryo, and look for causes behind implantation ...

Transposable elements are stretches of DNA that can move around the genome. Many of these DNA sequences originate from long ...

Animal embryos go through a series of characteristic developmental stages on their journey from a fertilized egg cell to a functional organism. This biological process is largely genetically ...

Scientists have recreated the human womb lining in the lab, revealing how embryos implant and survive after fertilisation, ...
