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 ...

New research reveals how two genes in the uterus control embryo implantation during IVF. This discovery may explain repeated ...

A team of scientists from China has successfully created a miniature womb on a chip that mimics the complex environment of ...

For decades, scientists have struggled to study this moment in humans because of ethical restrictions and limited access to ...

Scientists create a ‘mini-womb’ 3D model on a microfluidic chip which could lead to treatments for women affected by ...

The use of assisted reproductive technologies like in vitro fertilization is becoming more common worldwide. However, while these technologies successfully create viable embryos, a little over half of ...

"Understanding embryo implantation and embryo development just after implantation has significant clinical relevance as these stages are particularly prone to failure," said Dr. Peter Rugg-Gunn, ...

A China-led team has successfully created a mini-womb on a chip, replicating the early stages of human pregnancy ...

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 ...

Integrated screening and CRISPR reveal eleven previously unknown factors essential for early embryo development. They showed ...
