Scientists have developed a new human-based endometrial model to study embryonic implantation in the early stages of ...

A lot happens in the first month of human embryo development as a single cell morphs into multitudes. Yet despite its significance, this period is basically a “black box” to researchers, says stem ...

University of Cambridge scientists have used human stem cells to create three-dimensional embryo-like structures that replicate certain aspects of very early human development—including the production ...

New findings offer insight into why some embryos fail to develop past zygotic genome activation (ZGA), pointing to an unexpected root of human infertility. A critical point in early development is ...

Ancient viruses are embedded everywhere in the human genome. Estimates range, but it's thought that about eight percent of the human genome could be made up of these ancient retroviruses, which are ...

Every human life starts with a risky and delicate event—a microscopic embryo finding a place to settle inside the uterus. If this process fails, pregnancy never begins, no matter how healthy the ...

PAX6-dependent epithelial differentiation and developmental trajectories of the ocular surface are elucidated through single-cell RNA sequencing of hiPSC-derived ocular organoids. Formation of the ...

Add Yahoo as a preferred source to see more of our stories on Google. As an evolutionary biologist whose career has focused on how embryos develop in a wide variety of species over the course of ...

The team observed the emergence of the three-dimensional embryo-like structures under a microscope in the lab. These started producing blood (seen here in red) after around two weeks of development - ...
