Cell division is an essential process for all life on earth, yet the exact mechanisms by which cells divide during early ...

As the climate changes, scientists are concerned about how well plants and animals will adapt to rapid warming. A new ...

Embryonic development is a finely orchestrated process in which a single cell differentiates into the myriad specialised tissues that comprise a fully formed organism. Central to this process are ...

Research shows how the curved shape of a zebrafish egg sets cell division timing, gene activation, and early cell fate ...

Embryo development starts when a single egg cell is fertilized and starts dividing continuously. Initially a chaotic cluster, it gradually evolves into a highly organized structure. Scientists have ...

Researchers have gained new insights into the mechanism behind the spatial organization of DNA within the cells of early embryos. When an embryo is first formed after fertilization, each cell has the ...

In the earliest hours after fertilization, an embryo takes its first steps toward becoming a living organism by shedding maternal control and activating its own genetic program. This critical process, ...

The mystery of early embryonic communication is starting to be unraveled thanks to a new stem cell-based model.

Life begins with a single fertilized cell that gradually transforms into a multicellular organism. This process requires ...
