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

Transposable elements are stretches of DNA that can move around the genome. Many of these DNA sequences originate from long ...

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

A new study from the MRC Laboratory of Medical Sciences (LMS) in London, UK reveals how ancient viral DNA once written off as ...

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.

Scientists have developed an experimental way to study how human embryos implant in a uterus, which may provide new insights into why miscarriages occur and how they can be prevented.

Huntington’s disease (HD) was the first neurological disorder to be linked to a mutation in a single gene—a discovery made more than 25 years ago. However, neither the pathogenic mechanisms leading to ...

Over the past year or two, we have been exploring what we termed the origins—or the embryology—of human development. We examined the three pillars of development: Feelings (Affects), Language, and ...
