There is variability in when and how cells divide during the development of embryos. While researchers traditionally believed this variability was an obstacle that needed to be regulated, the Hiiragi ...

By engineering a system replicating the womb lining with high biological accuracy, researchers at the Babraham Institute and ...

When you seek the help of a fertility specialist to conceive, your first step is to undergo diagnostic tests to understand your likelihood of success. This is followed by a comprehensive consultation ...

High-resolution 3D womb model gives insights into embryo implantation, infertility, and signals between embryo and mother, ...

In April, researchers in China reported that they had initiated pregnancies in monkeys through a procedure seemingly much like in vitro fertilization (IVF), in which embryos created in a dish were ...

Spanning from the heart-stage embryo to seed germination, the study charts dynamic gene expression patterns in the embryo axis and cotyledon, revealing key regulatory networks. This work uncovers how ...

Endometrial model will revolutionise what we know about embryo development during implantation, supporting our understanding of the causes of early pregnancy loss and serious pregnancy complications.

The same pulling force that causes “tears” in a glass of wine also shapes embryos. It’s another example of how genes exploit mechanical forces for growth and development. Sip a glass of wine, and you ...
