One such breakthrough is the discovery of a potential ‘pause button’ for human embryos, which could revolutionise the way we ...

Currently, no country explicitly allows heritable human genome editing in clinical settings. It is not clear to what extent ...

Researchers at Monash University have developed a light-emitting microchip that can safely measure the energy produced by embryos, a key indicator of ...

Researchers evaluate the effectiveness of artificial intelligence algorithms in non-invasively predicting embryonic ploidy ...

a day after American scientists announced a breakthrough in creating human embryos. The new laws, drawn up to close a legal loophole in Britain after the High Court ruled that cloning humans was ...

Researchers discovered that gene deserts, non-coding DNA regions, regulate heart and embryo development through enhancer ...

The problem is that you need 30 to 60 embryos, because turning them to soup inevitably damages some of their genetic material, limiting what's left to analyze. Related: 'First complete models' of a ...

Researchers from the University of Barcelona and the August Pi y Sunyer Biomedical Research Institute (IDIBAPS) have shown ...

Chinese scientists have created at least 30 cloned human embryos as a source of cells for medical treatments, it was claimed last night. The research makes them leading contenders in the race ...

The Liminal Space has designed a fictional stem cell kit to spark a debate about this powerful but controversial technology.

If a human–animal cybrid embryo were genotyped based solely on its mtDNA content, then genetically it would be deemed animal, especially if it were homoplasmic with only recipient oocyte mtDNA.

Researchers at Karolinska Institutet have mapped how small RNA molecules, such as the recently Nobel Prize-awarded microRNAs, control cell development in the human embryo during the first days ...
