China has delivered the world's first human artificial embryo models to orbit to test how microgravity affects human ...

China launched embryo-like structures made from living human stem cells to its Tiangong space station for a first-of-its-kind ...

Microgravity and higher radiation levels in orbit could disrupt cell alignment, gene expression, or organ formation.

A lot happens in the first month of human embryo development as a single cell morphs into multitudes. Yet despite its significance, this period is basically a “black box” to researchers, says stem ...

A collaboration between research groups at the University of California, TU Dresden in Germany and Cedars-Sinai Guerin Children's in Los Angeles has identified a mechanism by which embryonic cells ...

Embryo-like structures were sent onboard the Chinese space station and will spend five days in low-earth orbit.

China's Tianzhou-10 mission just delivered embryo-like structures made from living stem cells to the Tiangong space station. Experiments could shed light on how radiation and microgravity affect human ...

An international study led by the medical Faculty of the University of Bonn has identified a gene that plays an important role in the development of the human embryo. If it is altered, malformations ...
