The eggs were placed in an artificial culture vessel made of transparent film, allowing for real-time observation of the chick embryo's development from laying to hatching. The study is published ...

Researchers disrupted the Shh signaling pathway in chicken embryos nine days into development, which is when feathers begin to form. This led to the development of simple, proto-feather-like buds.

Gain access to unparalleled expertise and innovative technologies that help address declining hatchability, ensuring a more ...

The technology uses artificial intelligence (AI) imaging to identify chick sex and other attributes of developing embryos.

induced the expression of these genes in the intercalation region of the developing embryo. The authors therefore propose that, compared to anamniotes, the chick (and possibly all amniotes ...

Ancestral features are often visible in a developing embryo; human and chicken embryos, for example, have folds in the neck similar to those that become gills in fish. When meat-eating dinosaurs ...

Recently, data generated from a study in chick embryos were extrapolated to suggest that pregnant women should not use this drug because of the risk of birth defects. We conducted a controlled ...

“I was always interested in how cells decide their fate,” Zernicka-Goetz said. In the mouse developing embryo, she previously demonstrated a bias at the two-cell stage: one cell contributed more to ...
