Despite being an essential developmental process, the understanding of human embryonic genome activation is limited, owing to the lack of in vitro cell models and ethical concerns. To advance ...

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 ...

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

Researchers have discovered a key transition in early embryonic development is facilitated by decreasing levels of a viral protein inserted into the DNA of our early animal ancestors. Researchers at ...

Long before human bone marrow takes over the task of producing blood, discrete waves of blood cell production occur in the developing embryo. Miriana Dardano, a postdoctoral researcher in Zweigerdt’s ...

Scientists captured first real-time 3D video of human embryo implantation, revealing mechanical forces behind successful ...

High-resolution 3D womb model gives insights into embryo implantation, infertility, and signals between embryo and mother, ...

Scientists interrogate leftover culture media to noninvasively determine the quality of embryos in the lab, providing a way to better predict in-vitro-fertilization (IVF) success. Researchers at the ...
