Research shows how the curved shape of a zebrafish egg sets cell division timing, gene activation, and early cell fate ...
Life begins with a single fertilized cell that gradually transforms into a multicellular organism. This process requires ...
Seals give birth only when conditions are right. After mating, a female seal can delay implantation of the embryo in the ...
Researchers have used naïve pluripotent stem cells to create an embryo model that looks and acts like a natural human embryo. They say it’s an ethical way of gaining a better understanding of ...
Statements in English by Samuel Ojosnegros Martos, Principal Investigator of the Bioengineering for Reproductive Health Group at the Institute for Bioengineering of Catalonia (IBEC), and leader of the ...
Some newly reported clumps of cells growing in lab dishes have been hailed as the closest things to human embryos that scientists have ever made in the lab. These entities are human embryo models — ...
Scientists have created synthetic blobs that resemble a 14-day-old human embryo for the first time, meaning they can study embryo development beyond a particularly tricky period of pregnancy.
