Scientists have captured the first instance of an early stage embryo forming, which could help solve the 'mystery' of how congenital birth defects start in humans. Australian researchers watched in ...

Researchers have shed light on an important stage of early embryo development that has never been fully mapped out in humans before. Because of the nature of available samples, studies so far have ...

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

Researchers have created 'synthetic' embryos from mouse stem cells that have beating hearts as well as the foundations of brains and all other organs. The models are intended to help the scientists at ...

Researchers have successfully created a 3D model of womb lining to study embryo implantation, a pivotal stage of pregnancy, ...

Scientists have grown “complete” models of human embryos in the lab with all the known features found in normal embryos around two weeks old. Known as stem cell-based embryo-like structures, or SEMs, ...

Endometrial model will revolutionise what we know about embryo development during implantation, supporting our understanding of the causes of early pregnancy loss and serious pregnancy complications.

To create this resource, the group gathered highly specific data about two different groups of skeletal muscle cells: those from the human body, ranging from the fifth week of embryonic development to ...

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

Huntington’s disease is a fatal condition involving the death of brain cells, typically striking in midlife. But new findings suggest the disease process starts decades earlier. Although symptoms ...
