After building embryoids for 10 years, we succeeded in generating structures with brains, hearts, neural tubes, somites with a yolk sac. Both original submissions using two different approaches are on BioRxiv, to be published soon.

Warmest congratulations & thanks to brilliant member of our team @Caltech Wenqi Hu, collaborator @Roser Vento (not on X) & HDBR for a fantastic journey in bringing this unique resource. We hope it will be valuable as a reference point to build more powerful stem cell models.

The portrayal of uncaring scientists without any thought for the animals being used in their research is far from the truth.

My son sang last night. It’s hard to believe that before he was born, tests suggested he might not survive or thrive. I’m endlessly grateful for the path I chose. To study human embryos is not to lessen the mystery of life—but to honour it, and to save it when we can.
