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. “This will allow us to develop treatments specifically targeting implantation,

Scientists have captured a video showing the implantation of a human embryo for the first time, using a laboratory model of a uterus.

A time-lapse film offers a glimpse of a hidden milestone of human development: the moment when the newly formed embryo latches onto the uterine lining. Researchers have captured real-time footage of an embryo pulling on a high-fidelity replica of the lining to bury itself inside,
