The signals orchestrating the transformation of cells into the highly organized structures of embryos have remained hidden from observation inside the womb. Now, scientists have illuminated early ...

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 ...

A video showing a synthetic mouse embryo model on day 8 of its development; it has a beating heart, a yolk sac, a placenta and an emerging blood circulation. “The embryo is the best organ-making ...

The sculpting of the face during embryonic development - the physical molding that determines what we will look like - may remain open to change much longer than had been thought, according to ...

Physical cues in the womb, and not just genetics, influence the normal development of neural crest cells, the embryonic stem cells that form facial features, finds a new study led by UCL researchers.

Physical cues in the womb, and not just genetics, influence the normal development of neural crest cells, the embryonic stem cells that form facial features, finds a new study. Physical cues in the ...

Researchers from the University of Cambridge have used mouse stem cells to create a model embryo in the laboratory – a breakthrough they describe as "a new avenue for recreating the first stages of ...

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 ...
