The team observed the emergence of the three-dimensional embryo-like structures under a microscope in the lab. These started producing blood (seen here in red) after around two weeks of development - ...

Scientists are exploring ways to mimic the origins of human life without two fundamental components: sperm and egg. They are coaxing clusters of stem cells – programmable cells that can transform into ...

University of Cambridge scientists have used human stem cells to create three-dimensional embryo-like structures that replicate certain aspects of very early human development - including the ...

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

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.

The distinct parental origins of the X chromosome lead to X-specific lower methylation in female embryos (at least in TE lineage), which, combined with the incomplete X chromosome inactivation and sex ...
