A 72 to 66-million-year-old embryo found inside a fossilised dinosaur egg sheds new light on the link between the behaviour ...
Rare dinosaur embryo exquisitely preserved inside the egg suggests bird-like pre-hatching posture
Over the last 100 years, many fossilized dinosaur eggs and nests have been found, but finding one with a well-preserved ...
Genes are switched on in the human embryo from the get-go
The finding that some genes are active from the get-go challenges the textbook view that genes don't become active in ...
Breakthrough research on human embryo models paves the way for improving in vitro fertilization success rate and new non-hormonal, user-friendly contraception
Being able to recapitulate in a dish what human embryos normally do hidden within the womb opens avenues for improving ...
