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

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

Instead of a sperm and egg, the starting material was naive stem cells which were reprogrammed to gain the potential to become any type of tissue in the body. Chemicals were then used to coax these ...

Scientists captured first real-time 3D video of human embryo implantation, revealing mechanical forces behind successful pregnancy.

Stem cells have the remarkable potential to develop into many different cell types. Now, using mouse stem cells instead of the usual sperm and egg, scientists have created a structure like a ...

High-resolution 3D womb model gives insights into embryo implantation, infertility, and signals between embryo and mother, ...

Endometrial model will revolutionise what we know about embryo development during implantation, supporting our understanding of the causes of early pregnancy loss and serious pregnancy complications.

The model allows scientists to study interactions between the womb and embryo, and look for causes behind implantation ...

The team placed blastocysts—embryos 5-6 days after fertilization that were donated following IVF procedures—onto the ...

Embryos and the uterus exchange molecular signals within the first hour, shaping whether implantation succeeds or fails.
