Scientists have shed light on an important stage of early embryonic development that has never been fully mapped out in humans before. Due to more readily available samples, studies so far have ...

The creation of cellular structures similar to blastocysts has enabled KAUST scientists to build an in vitro model that mimics the earliest moments of human embryogenesis. A blastocyst is the first ...

A recent Nature study evaluates post-implantation development in humans using embryo-like models based on genetically unmodified human naïve embryonic stem cells (ESCs). Study: Complete human day 14 ...

Genomic scientists at KAIST have revealed new insights into the process of human embryonic development using large-scale, whole-genome sequencing of cells and tissues from adult humans. The study, ...

Human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs) represent powerful tools for modelling early human embryogenesis and provide a source of differentiated cells for use in regenerative medicine. The assurance of ...

Scientists have identified key molecular events in the developing human embryo between days 7 and 14 -- one of the most mysterious, yet critical, stages of our development. Scientists have identified ...

Embryonic development, also known as embryogenesis, is a cornerstone in understanding the origins of life. But studying this marvel of intricate and layered biological processes in people faces ...
