Scientists are exploring ways to mimic the origins of human life without two fundamental components: sperm and egg. They are coaxing clusters of stem cells – programmable cells that can transform into ...

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 ...

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 human embryo embeds itself into a fake uterus created by researchers. Screenshot from an Institute for Bioengineering of Catalonia video Sixty percent of miscarriages are caused by the failure of an ...

By studying genetic data from nearly 140,000 IVF embryos, scientists have with unprecedented detail revealed why fewer than ...

Humans do not have tails, but do we have “what it takes” for a tail? Hens don’t have teeth, but they have the genes for it. With atavism, it is as if our genomes serve as archives of our evolutionary ...

Researchers in Barcelona have, for the first time, recorded a human embryo embedding itself into the uterus in real time and in 3D, revealing the surprisingly forceful and invasive process that is ...

Researchers at the Institute for Bioengineering of Catalonia (IBEC) in collaboration with the Dexeus University Hospital have captured unparalleled images of a human embryo implanting. This is the ...
