STORYLINE:
Stem cell researchers created artificial models of human embryos and successfully grew them outside the womb up to day 14, the Weizmann Institute of Science (WIS) in central Israel said in a statement on Wednesday.
In a new study published in the journal Science, the researchers created artificial stem cell embryo models that accurately mimic all the essential features and components of this developmental stage, including the placenta, yolk sac, chorionic sac, and assorted external tissues essential for facilitating dynamic and healthy growth.
Due to their genuine complexity, the human embryo models created by the WIS team could offer an unprecedented opportunity to gain fresh insights into the beginnings of embryos, acco
