Embryology 2.0: the beginnings of life in a dish

LMB Seminar for Non-Scientists
Cambridge Biomedical Campus on Virtual Tour
Human reproduction is very inefficient. It is estimated that only 30% of all conceptions make it to a live birth. However, the reasons behind early pregnancy loss remain very poorly understood. I will discuss novel methodologies that allow us to study human embryos in the laboratory and recreate human embryogenesis using stem cells. These techniques promise to shed light on the first stages of our development and tackle the issue of pregnancy loss.

About the MRC Laboratory of Molecular Biology (LMB): The LMB is one of the world's leading research institutes. Discoveries and inventions developed at the LMB, for example DNA sequencing and methods to determine the structure of proteins, have revolutionised all areas of biology. Its scientists work to advance understanding of biological processes at the molecular level. This information will help us to understand the workings of complex systems, such as the immune system and the brain, and solve key problems in human health.
