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

With today's advanced microscopes, scientists can capture videos of entire embryos developing in real time. But there's a catch: turning those breathtaking images into clean, accurate trajectories of ...

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 ...

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 ...

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

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

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 ...

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

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 ...

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 ...
