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

Then researchers placed blastoids and embryos donated after infertility treatments inside the little device and watched it ...

Scientists have developed an experimental way to study how human embryos implant in a uterus, which may provide new insights into why miscarriages occur and how they can be prevented.

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

Using the fruit fly, scientists have constructed a complete and detailed single-cell map of embryo development. This research will also help scientists pursue questions like how mutations lead to ...

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

Embryo development starts when a single egg cell is fertilized and starts dividing continuously. Initially a chaotic cluster, it gradually evolves into a highly organized structure. Scientists have ...

When a vertebrate embryo develops, a group of cells self-organizes into the neural tube, eventually becoming the brain and the spinal cord. This involves specific signals, but how these signals are ...

Growing up in Brazil, Marcos Simões-Costa often visited his grandparents’ farm in the Amazon. That immersion in nature — squawking toucans and all — sparked his fascination with science and evolution.

Monozygotic twinning itself after elective single embryo transfer is uncommon, occurring in no more than roughly 3% of cases.

A team of scientists has just gotten a closer peek into one of the earliest and most fundamental steps of creating a human life. Research out today highlights how they captured—for the first ...
