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 ...

(Nanowerk News) Cambridge 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 ...

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 ...

Implantation, one of the most poorly understood phases of early human development, occurs in the depths of the womb, at a time when embryos are microscopic, fragile, and well out of reach. Until ...

In a new study, researchers compare the transcriptomic profiles of recently reported human embryo stage 8-cell-like cells with human embryos The onset of embryo-specific gene transcription, also known ...

Using human stem cells, scientists have created human embryo-like structures inside petri dishes. These lab-grown blobs develop multiple structures that mimic a human embryo after implantation into ...

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 ...

For the first time, scientists at the Francis Crick Institute have successfully developed human stem cell models that include ...

When someone says the word embryo, what do you think of? Probably that picture you’ve seen a thousand times on a thousand different news articles: a translucent orb swelling with cytoplasm being ...
