The embryos completed one-third of their total gestation outside of a uterus.

There are a surprising number of unknowns about how our limbs come to be symmetrical.

The bioactive coating tethers restorative proteins to implanted tissues and fosters new growth, animal studies suggest.

Recent advances in modeling the human placenta, the least understood organ, may inform placental disorders like preeclampsia.

Researchers explore the idea that molecular patterns in individual cells could underlie the development of a left and a right in animals.

Sequencing and gene-editing advances make tracing a cell’s journey throughout development easier than ever.

The finding confirms that a cluster of cells that directs the fate of other cells in the developing embryo is evolutionarily conserved across the animal kingdom.

Animals with human cells could provide donor organs or help us understand neuropsychiatric disorders.

From guiding branching neurons in the developing brain to maintaining a healthy heartbeat, there seems to be no job that the immune cells can’t tackle.
