Scientists Discover How Embryos Develop Different Tail Types In a new study, scientists have uncovered the molecular mechanism responsible for the development of different tail types in embryos. New Method to Track Embryo Development in Real Time Researchers have developed a new method to track embryo development in real time that could revolutionize our understanding of how embryos form and grow. How Embryonic Cells Know When to Divide Researchers have discovered how embryonic cells know when to divide, providing an answer to a long-standing mystery about early embryo development.
MN1 gene study reveals link between brain and skull co-evolution
A new study from the Max Planck Institute for Evolutionary Biology has uncovered how the MN1 gene evolved to shape both the brain and skull during embryogenesis—a link with profound implications for understanding evolution and development but also birth defects. The work is published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.
The Bioethics of In Vitro Gametogenesis (IVG) and Stem Cell-Based Embryo Models (SCBEMs) from the Sociocultural Perspective of Singapore | Research Communities by Springer Nature
Given that such new assisted reproductive technologies would be needed only by a tiny fraction of local patients facing extremely difficult infertility problems, these will not significantly improve Singapore’s ultra-low fertility rate.

Public consultation on Stem Cell-Based Embryo Models (SCBEMs) and Synthetic Embryos should be conducted by the Bioethics Advisory Committee (BAC) of Singapore | Research Communities by Springer Nature
Given the vast potential of this new technology platform in the biomedical field, Singapore’s Bioethics Advisory Committee (BAC) should conduct a public consultation on using stem cell-based embryo models (synthetic embryos) in research and clinical applications.
Embryonic cells use same communication proteins as hearing cells due to shared evolution, study finds
Like all complex organisms, every human originates from a single cell that multiplies through countless cell divisions. Thousands of cells coordinate, move and exert mechanical forces on each other as an embryo takes shape.
Jawless parasite study uncovers how neural crest cells shaped thyroid evolution
The thyroid, a vital endocrine organ in vertebrates, plays a key role in regulating metabolism and supporting growth. The first gland of both the nervous system and endocrine system to mature during an embryo's development, it initially evolved more than 500 million years ago out of a "primitive" precursor organ in chordates known as the endostyle.
The Return of the Builder: Cancer as a Misguided Architect | Research Communities by Springer Nature
In 1907, Karl Landsteiner saw a tumor that looked like a fetus. A century later, organoids grew cancers that mimicked organs. Behind them both was a hidden architect: the embryo. Not metaphor—but memory. Cancer doesn’t invent chaos. It reawakens a forgotten design.
Fruit fly research shows that mechanical forces drive evolutionary change
A tissue fold known as the cephalic furrow, an evolutionary novelty that forms between the head and the trunk of fly embryos, plays a mechanical role in stabilizing embryonic tissues during the development of the fruit fly Drosophila melanogaster.
Regulation of Polygenic Embryo Screening (PGT-P) in Singapore | Research Communities by Springer Nature
Singapore is facing a demographic crisis due to its ultra-low fertility rates. New assisted reproductive technologies, such as Polygenic Embryo Screening (PES), have been proposed as a solution, but there is a risk that their unregulated use will backfire and instead accelerate demographic decline.
