6 core challenges that researchers must consider as the race to create models that are ever closer to real human embryos heats up.

Embryonic development, also known as embryogenesis, is a cornerstone in understanding the origins of life. But studying this marvel of intricate and layered biological processes in people faces ...

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 - ...

Stem cell-based embryo models (SCBEMs) are three-dimensional biological structures that mimic aspects of early human embryo development. They can be created in the lab from stem cells, and can provide ...

Researchers have developed a new embryo-like model derived from adult cells that replicates key features of early human development, including the generation of blood cells. University of Pittsburgh ...
