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

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

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

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 ...

A new study shows that the embryo and the uterine lining conduct an active "conversation" from the very earliest stages of implantation. They engage in a back and forth of tiny packages called ...

"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, ...

Researchers at the Institute for Bioengineering of Catalonia (IBEC) in collaboration with the Dexeus University Hospital have captured unparalleled images of a human embryo implanting. This is the ...

A 3D uterus embryo implantation simulation chip developed by a Chinese research team has, for the first time, fully replicated the entire process of human embryo implantation in a laboratory setting, ...

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 ...

A system which replicates the womb lining (endometrium) with high biological fidelity has been developed by researchers at the Babraham Institute and used to listen in to the communication that ...
