We’ve uncovered a master gene that switches on human development
We have identified the gene that, when activated, initiates the developmental programme that results in cells forming a human ...
Cell division is an essential process for all life on earth, yet the exact mechanisms by which cells divide during early embryonic development have remained elusive – particularly for egg-laying ...
Researchers led by developmental biologist Kathy Niakan at the University of Cambridge have used base editing in human embryos to learn more about human embryonic development. By deactivating a gene ...
