The mystery of early embryonic communication is starting to be unraveled thanks to a new stem cell-based model.

The new organoids were grown in the lab for up to 40 days, and they mimicked the central nervous system of an 11-week-old human embryo. When you purchase through links on our site, we may earn an ...

Researchers have developed a new embryo-like model derived from adult cells that replicates key features of early human development, including the generation of blood cells. University of Pittsburgh ...

Scientists have developed an experimental way to study how human embryos implant in a uterus, which may provide new insights into why miscarriages occur and how they can be prevented.

Collaborative work has developed a cell culture system that differentiates human pluripotent stem cells to amniotic ectoderm and surface ectoderm based on cell density. Research conducted by Dr Shota ...

Scientists have grown a scalable new embryo-like model that unshrouds some mysteries of early human development, including blood cell formation, or hematopoiesis—a first for the field. In an article ...

The pelvis is often called the keystone of upright movement. It helps explain how human ancestors left life on all fours ...

A new study using stem cell-based models has shed new light on how the human embryo begins to develop, which could one day benefit the development of fertility treatment. The study led by at the ...

The majority of fertilized eggs die and are resorbed into the body. ZEISS Microscopy/Flickr, CC BY-SA As an evolutionary biologist whose career has focused on how embryos develop in a wide variety of ...
