The Chinese Academy of Sciences has announced an amazing and potentially controversial new project to test the development of ...

The embryos cannot develop into humans, and are being used to study development in outer space.

The Shenzhou-22 successfully made it back from China's space station on May 29. The cultured embryo material was among science samples brought back as part of a project undertaken by a research team ...

Chinese researchers sent artificial human embryo models into space to study how microgravity may affect early human ...

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

A human embryo at roughly three to four weeks of development. The Tiangong experiment uses stem cell-derived embryo models at ...

China’s artificial embryos are part of an experiment to learn more about how human pregnancies could develop under ...

A new gene-editing breakthrough in human embryos raises the possibility of selecting certain traits in future babies while ...

A new study using stem cell-based models has shed new light on how the human embryo begins to develop, which could one day benefit the development of fertility treatment. A new study using stem ...

The team observed the emergence of the three-dimensional embryo-like structures under a microscope in the lab. These started producing blood (seen here in red) after around two weeks of development - ...

The ‘base editing’ technique that researchers used is far from ready for the clinic, but critics worry it will spur a rush to ...
