Cell division is an essential process for all life on Earth, yet the exact mechanisms by which cells divide during early ...

Despite being an essential developmental process, the understanding of human embryonic genome activation is limited, owing to the lack of in vitro cell models and ethical concerns. To advance ...

How can we reliably and objectively characterize the speed and various stages of embryonic development? With the help of artificial intelligence! Researchers present an automated method. Animal ...

Which genes are required for turning embryonic stem cells into brain cells, and what happens when this process goes wrong? In ...

Life begins with a single fertilized cell that gradually transforms into a multicellular organism. This process requires ...

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

Long before human bone marrow takes over the task of producing blood, discrete waves of blood cell production occur in the developing embryo. Miriana Dardano, a postdoctoral researcher in Zweigerdt’s ...

Researchers have discovered a key transition in early embryonic development is facilitated by decreasing levels of a viral protein inserted into the DNA of our early animal ancestors. Researchers at ...
