Scientists have evaluated the adverse effects of blastocyst shrinkage on the reproductive outcomes of frozen-thawed embryo transfer. The effect was evident in embryos with morphologically ...

DENVER -- Genetic testing and algorithms revealed that over 1% of more than 96,000 blastocyst-stage embryos had ploidy abnormalities, or atypical numbers of chromosomes. In total, ploidy abnormalities ...

"Preimplantation genetic testing for aneuploidy (PGT-A) has emerged as a powerful tool in assisted reproductive technology, offering the potential to enhance the chances of successful embryo ...

Innovative research, presented today at the ESHRE 40 th Annual Meeting in Amsterdam, has introduced a novel 3D imaging model designed to identify features of blastocysts – the early stage of ...

At some point in our evolution, we lost the ability to activate a reproductive mechanism called embryonic diapause, which slows development, usually during the blastocyst stage. And so, unlike mammals ...
