For decades, scientists have struggled to study this moment in humans because of ethical restrictions and limited access to ...

Researchers have captured the very first real-time, three-dimensional images and videos of a human embryo implanting into collagen designed to mimic uterine tissue —a key stage in reproduction. The ...

Scientists create a ‘mini-womb’ 3D model on a microfluidic chip which could lead to treatments for women affected by ...

University of Cambridge scientists have used human stem cells to create three-dimensional embryo-like structures that replicate certain aspects of very early human development - including the ...

The team observed the emergence of the three-dimensional embryo-like structures under a microscope in the lab. These started producing blood (seen here in red) after around two weeks of development - ...

A team of scientists has just gotten a closer peek into one of the earliest and most fundamental steps of creating a human life. Research out today highlights how they captured—for the first ...

A China-led team has successfully created a mini-womb on a chip, replicating the early stages of human pregnancy ...

Researchers have developed a new stem cell model of the mature human amniotic sac, which replicates development of the tissues supporting the embryo from two to four weeks after fertilization. This is ...

Researchers at the Babraham Institute have ‘listened in’ to the communication between the embryo and the womb lining at the ...
