Accumulated evidence suggests that physical force plays an important role in various developmental processes of fertilized animal eggs. During embryogenesis, a variety of cell populations actively ...

The process of embryogenesis begins when an egg or ovum is fertilized by a sperm cell to form a zygote. This zygote then undergoes mitotic division, a process that does not result in any significant ...

Assistant Professor of Obstetrics and Gynecology, School of Medicine, University of Washington Embryonic development, also known as embryogenesis, is a cornerstone in understanding the origins of life ...

A recent study in Nature Cell Biology identified guinea pigs as promising small animals to model preimplantation development, a critical step in human embryogenesis. Stem cells provide opportunities ...

A central question in modern biology is how the information stored in the genome of a fertilized egg orchestrates the making of an organism. The Nematode C. elegans, aka the worm, is a powerful system ...
