Life begins with a single fertilized cell that gradually transforms into a multicellular organism. This process requires ...

Researchers have gained new insights into the mechanism behind the spatial organization of DNA within the cells of early embryos. When an embryo is first formed after fertilization, each cell has the ...

Embryonic development is a meticulously orchestrated process in which spatial and temporal cues guide cell fate determination and tissue patterning. Central to this process is morphogen signalling – a ...

An international research team identified hundreds of genes essential for the development of brain cells, including one gene ...

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

A new study from the MRC Laboratory of Medical Sciences (LMS) in London, UK reveals how ancient viral DNA once written off as "junk" plays a crucial role in the earliest moments of life. The research, ...

Bioengineering researchers at the Harvard John A. Paulson School of Engineering and Applied Sciences (SEAS) have developed a soft, thin, stretchable bioelectronic device that can be implanted into a ...

Over 130 mammal species can delay embryonic development, giving their offspring the best possible chance of survival in ideal ...

BEIJING, Dec. 30 (Xinhua) -- Chinese researchers have developed an in vivo embryonic mouse intrauterine imaging technique, which has elucidated the dynamic process of brain development in embryonic ...
