Clear rules governing human embryo research must be established to enable regulators, researchers and funders to assess whether stem cell-generated models should be considered as human embryos, two ...
Roughly 50 years ago, scientists pursued a line of inquiry about the creation and development of human embryos in the lab. As of now, the extent of this research is limited to the first 14 days ...
Bangkok — Scientists have developed human embryo-like structures without using sperm, an egg or fertilization, offering hope for research on miscarriage and birth defects but also raising fresh ...
Megan Munsie receives funding from Australian Research Council, Medical Research Future Fund and the Novo Nordisk Foundation. She is the Vice President of the Australasian Society for Stem Cell ...
Scientists have been able to make and study human embryos in their labs for decades. But they have never been able to keep them alive outside a woman's womb for more than about a week. That limitation ...
Lab-grown structures with the potential to develop into fetuses should be defined — and regulated — as embryos, some researchers say. It is time for a redefinition of the human embryo, a team of ...
NIH opens federal funding for 13 embryonic stem cell lines, will review 96 more. Dec. 2, 2009— -- The National Institutes of Health announced it will make 13 new embryonic stem cell lines will be ...
When someone says the word embryo, what do you think of? Probably that picture you’ve seen a thousand times on a thousand different news articles: a translucent orb swelling with cytoplasm being ...
This is why embryonic stem cell research must occur and is worthy of federally provided dollars.Opponents of embryonic stem cell research worry of moral and ethical issues implicit in the field?s ...
An international team of paleontologists has uncovered the oldest known fossil reptile embryos, dating back approximately 280 ...
Scientists are using human stem cells to create a structure that mimics a pre-embryo and can serve as a research alternative to a real one. They say these “blastoids” provide an efficient, ethical way ...
