Interdisciplinary approaches in developmental biology have revealed how cells build the embryonic bones of the skull vault ...
Scientists at EPFL have created a scalable 3D organoid model that captures key features of early limb development, revealing ...
Development of embryos "We found that the randomness in when and how cells divide actually helps embryos to develop properly," says Dimitri Fabrèges, a postdoc researcher in the Hiiragi group. He and ...
What do the earliest stages of a pregnancy look like? Embryonic development has been extensively studied, but most of our knowledge of the earliest stages of a growing baby come from stationary ...
A discovery upends decades of assumptions regarding DNA replication. The study show that DNA replication in early embryos is different from what past research has taught, and includes a period of ...
A gene that turns on very early in embryonic development could be key to the formation of the placenta, which provides the ...
Researchers used a particle accelerator the size of a stadium in order to gain this unprecedented look inside these ...
A RIKEN researcher and his colleague have identified how genes are expressed in fish embryos when they first start using their own genetic material. If the same mechanisms apply to humans, they could ...
They discovered that a gene called VGLL1 (vestigial like family member 1) was turned on very early during placenta formation.
