University of Pittsburgh 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.

A human embryo-like model was successfully developed by a group of scientists at the California Institute of Technology, led by renowned biologist Madalena Zernicka-Goetz. The model replicates the ...

Scientists have grown a scalable new embryo-like model that unshrouds some mysteries of early human development, including blood cell formation, or hematopoiesis—a first for the field. In an article ...

A team of scientists in Israel say they’ve created a completely human-like embryo model without the need for a sperm or egg, up through 14 days of development. Reading time 3 minutes A team of ...

In a scientific breakthrough that raises a number of medical and ethical issues, researchers have used stem cells to create living, growing models of a human embryo. Because stem cells were used, ...

Scientists have grown a human embryo-like structure in a lab which replicates very early human development - including the production of blood stem cells. The lab-grown embryo model could help ...

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 ...

Technological, ethical and legal issues have limited the understanding of the early stages of embryonic development in humans, despite its importance in basic developmental biology and reproductive ...
