H umans are the only primates that walk on two legs. Scientists believe that their uniquely shaped pelvis, the bones that connect the spine to the legs, makes this possible. However, researchers ...

By tracking the fate of individual embryonic stem cells, researchers have found that endoderm cells—early embryonic cells ...

Genetic and anatomical data reveal how the human pelvis acquired its unique shape, enabling our ancestors to walk on two legs ...

New examinations of skeletons and animal embryos have allowed researchers to discover how mammals developed protruding, flexible noses. This study contributes to uncovering the origin of mammals' ...

A new study delves into the development of the ilium, the largest bone in the pelvis, and the genes that underpin its ...

Discovering the hidden steps in human pelvis development through embryonic research, shedding light on bipedal evolution mysteries.

Researchers at EPFL have created the first 4D lipid atlas of vertebrate development, revealing how fats shape our bodies from ...

In vertebrates, the skeleton of different regions of the body arises from different precursor cells. Researchers at the University of Basel have now discovered that these skeletal cells do not just ...

A team at the University of Cambridge has announced making the first human “synthetic embryos” – embryo-like structures made from stem cells – that have been grown to a stage equivalent to just past ...
