Neurulation is a well-known morphogenetic event of embryonic development that has important clinical consequences. The failure of neural tube closure leads to a group of common and severe ...

This protocol describes the in vitro culture of cynomolgus monkey embryos from blastocyst to early organogenesis. Given the ethical limitations restricting the use of human embryos beyond 14 days, ...
