A stem-cell derived human embryo model showing blue cells (embryo), yellow cells (yolk sac) and pink cells (placenta). Scientists have grown an entity that closely resembles an early human embryo ...

Scientists have created the synthetic human embryos - using no eggs or sperm - provoking deep ethical questions, according to reports. The synthetic embryos - only days or weeks old - could help ...

After years of trial and error, scientists have finally done something incredible: They have successfully grown human stem cells in a pig embryo. Why would anyone do this? Turns out, many ...
