Scientists have grown a human embryo-like structure in a lab which replicates very early human development - including the production of blood stem cells. The lab-grown embryo model could help ...

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 - ...

University of Cambridge scientists have used human stem cells to create three-dimensional embryo-like structures that replicate certain aspects of very early human development - including the ...
