In a new @CellStemCell study, scientists in the @BrivanlouLab have used light-inducible gene expression to demonstrate that the formation of the body axes in human embryo models requires an interplay between chemical cues and mechanical forces. rockefeller.edu/news/38639-m…

A new platform from the @BrivanlouLab promises to reveal much about how human embryos form during the earliest stages of pregnancy. Brivanlou: “Gastrulation was a tremendous black box. We had never seen ourselves at that stage." #RockefellerScience rockefeller.edu/news/35605-s…

We asked the HFEA years ago how to define onset of PS & they suggested mol markers like T were not enough – morphological changes needed. This manuscript poses interesting questions about how to define the PS (& possibility of extended dev in the future) that is worth discussing
Check out our latest preprint describing the onset of human gastrulation upon in vitro attachment! Here we show that stem cell-derived models of the human blastocyst, blastoids, and natural human embryos initiate gastrulation with a surprising timeline upon extended culture.
