Insect developmental biology encompasses the study of the intricate processes that govern embryogenesis, tissue differentiation, and body segmentation in insects. Central to this field is the ...

Over 130 mammal species can delay embryonic development, giving their offspring the best possible chance of survival in ideal ...

Despite differences in shape and size all insects are characterized by a body organization that includes three units: a head, thorax and abdomen (panels A-B). In contrast all spiders (and other ...

The earliest days after fertilization, once a sperm cell meets an egg, are shrouded in scientific mystery. The process of how a humble single cell becomes an organism fascinates scientists across ...

Using CRISPR-based engineering methods to prompt stem cells to organize into embryo-like structures, scientists were able to create 'programmable' cellular models of embryos without ever experimenting ...
