How does the embryo develop during the third week of pregnancy?
Week 3 of pregnancy is a critical stage when the embryo begins to grow rapidly. During this week, cells divide at an astonishing rate, laying the foundation for all future tissues and organs. This ...
Eggs take exactly 21 days to hatch, and the process of chick development is an exciting opportunity for your students! We are working to create lessons, videos and resources for you to use in your ...
Under his microscope, Jun Wu could see several tiny spheres, each less than 1 millimetre wide. They looked just like human embryos: a dark cluster of cells surrounded by a cavity, and then another ...
Why do pregnancies last longer in some species than others? Researchers have found the clock that sets the speed of embryonic development and discovered the mechanism is based on how proteins are made ...
Researchers have used naïve pluripotent stem cells to create an embryo model that looks and acts like a natural human embryo. They say it’s an ethical way of gaining a better understanding of ...
Researchers at Vanderbilt University have developed a new embryo culture dish that significantly improves microscope imaging, a longstanding barrier in in‑vitro fertilization (IVF). Traditional 3D ...
Scientists have identified key molecular events in the earliest stages of human embryo development that could help shed light on why many pregnancies fail. These events occur in the second week of ...
A team at the University of Cambridge has announced making the first human “synthetic embryos” – embryo-like structures made from stem cells – that have been grown to a stage equivalent to just past ...
Researchers have developed a method for culturing fertilized chick eggs without their shells. The eggs were placed in an artificial culture vessel made of transparent film, allowing for real-time ...
As people age, so do all of our cells, which accumulate damage over time. But why our offspring don’t inherit those changes — effectively aging a child even before birth — has been a mystery. “When ...
