A research team led by Associate Professor Hirofumi Nishizono and graduate student Masaki Kato from the Research Support ...

Integrated screening and CRISPR reveal eleven previously unknown factors essential for early embryo development. They showed ...

A MedUni Vienna study team led by geneticist Markus Hengstschläger has used a stem cell model to model the earliest stages of embryonic development and to characterize the membrane that surrounds the ...

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

Researchers have used naïve pluripotent stem cells to create an embryo model that looks and acts like a natural human embryo. They say it’s an ethical way of gaining a better understanding of ...

Scientists have uncovered a new quality control system that removes damaged cells from early developing embryos. Scientists studying gene activity data of the early human embryo have discovered an ...

Embryos in pregnancies that end in miscarriage take longer to develop in the womb than those in pregnancies that result in live births, according to new research published today (Monday) in Human ...

Infertility is a major healthcare concern. Understanding the molecular regulators governing fertilization, early embryonic ...
