A new high-powered microscope has allowed scientists to watch a zebrafish develop from a single cell into an embryo with a beating heart, the first time this has been possible in vertebrates, ...

A recent developed microscope has allowed scientists to hold a front-row view on the “drama of mammalian development”. Scientists can now see inside a living mouse embryo, such as seeing the gut ...

With the development of an adaptive, multi-view light sheet microscope and a suite of computational tools, researchers have captured the first view of early organ development inside the mouse embryo.

Compared to the low-tech way of studying development in mice — scrutinizing day-old mouse fetuses, then another bunch that are an hour older, and more that are two hours older, and so on up to the end ...

Life begins with a single fertilized cell that gradually transforms into a multicellular organism. This process requires ...

Researchers at the European Molecular Biology Laboratory (EMBL) have generated a digital zebrafish embryo - the first complete developmental blueprint of a vertebrate. With a newly developed ...

"This microscope is very, very, very unusual," says Keller, a developmental biologist and optical physicist at the Howard Hughes Medical Institute's Janelia research campus. That's because it's built ...

LONDON (Reuters) - A new high-powered microscope has allowed scientists to watch a zebrafish develop from a single cell into an embryo with a beating heart, the first time this has been possible in ...
