The mystery of early embryonic communication is starting to be unraveled thanks to a new stem cell-based model.

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 ...

Researchers at the Babraham Institute have ‘listened in’ to the communication between the embryo and the womb lining at the ...

Scientists have created embryo models to help study the mysteries of early human development, the medical problems that happen before birth and why many pregnancies fail. These models are made from ...

Researchers have developed a new stem cell model of the mature human amniotic sac, which replicates development of the tissues supporting the embryo from two to four weeks after fertilization. This is ...
