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 ...

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 ...

The curved shape of a zebrafish egg causes unequal cell divisions, creating larger cells near the animal pole and smaller ...

Scientists can now create embryo-like structures from animal and human stem cells in the lab, and recently, researchers unveiled the most advanced human embryo models yet, which resemble natural ...

Described in a paper in the journal Cell, the model allows scientists to study interactions between the womb and embryo, and ...

A recent Nature study evaluates post-implantation development in humans using embryo-like models based on genetically unmodified human naïve embryonic stem cells (ESCs). Study: Complete human day 14 ...

When you seek the help of a fertility specialist to conceive, your first step is to undergo diagnostic tests to understand your likelihood of success. This is followed by a comprehensive consultation ...

Embryos in pregnancies that end in miscarriage take longer to develop in the womb than those in pregnancies that result in live births, according to new research published today (Monday) in Human ...

Life begins with a single fertilized cell that gradually transforms into a multicellular organism. This process requires ...
