By tracking the fate of individual embryonic stem cells, researchers have found that endoderm cells—early embryonic cells ...

Optical coherence tomography (OCT) has emerged as a pivotal non‐invasive imaging modality in the study of embryonic development. By harnessing light to capture high-resolution, three‐dimensional ...

Researchers have developed a method for culturing fertilized chick eggs without their shells. The eggs were placed in an artificial culture vessel made of transparent film, allowing for real-time ...

A small tissue fold in fly embryos, once thought purposeless, plays a vital role in stabilizing tissues. Researchers show that it absorbs stress during early development, and its position and timing ...

New research has unveiled a remarkable mechanism by which tissues in zebrafish coordinate their growth during embryonic development.

Scientists recorded in 3D and in real time the exact moment a human embryo implanted itself in an artificial uterus, opening ...

Aug. 11 (UPI) --A team of Spanish researchers announced Friday they have for the first time recorded video of a human embryo implanting itself in a simulated uterine wall, revealing never-before-seen ...

Researchers at EPFL have created the first 4D lipid atlas of vertebrate development, revealing how fats shape our bodies from ...

Sixty percent of miscarriages are caused by the failure of an embryo—the developmental stage before a fetus—to implant in the woman’s uterus. Part of the problem is that researchers have no idea how ...

Bioengineering researchers at the Harvard John A. Paulson School of Engineering and Applied Sciences (SEAS) have developed a soft, thin, stretchable bioelectronic device that can be implanted into a ...

Caltech researchers have developed a powerful new method for creating embryo-like structures from stem cells that could transform how we study fertility.
