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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

Implantation, one of the most poorly understood phases of early human development, occurs in the depths of the womb, at a time when embryos are microscopic, fragile, and well out of reach. Until ...

Researchers have captured the very first real-time, three-dimensional images and videos of a human embryo implanting into synthetic uterine tissue—revealing a key stage in reproduction. The resulting ...

Every human life starts with a risky and delicate event—a microscopic embryo finding a place to settle inside the uterus. If this process fails, pregnancy never begins, no matter how healthy the ...

Scientists have developed an experimental way to study how human embryos implant in a uterus, which may provide new insights into why miscarriages... Scientists learn more about how human embryos ...

Scientists have gotten an unprecedented look at how the human embryo implants in a uterus. They did this by creating very primitive, womb-like environments in the lab. "This is really important work ...

Although scientists know a lot about the process of human embryo implantation, it had never been recorded in real time, until now. Now that investigators can observe it in action, they may be able to ...
