Watch time: 5-15 mins

A team of University of Michigan engineers has developed a stem cell model of a human embryo that includes a yolk-sac-like structure, without using genetic modification. While it doesn’t fully replicate early development, the work could open new avenues for studying early pregnancy. Read the full article to learn where this research could lead.
