flag Scientists create "programmable" embryo models using CRISPR, advancing developmental disorder research.

flag Scientists at UC Santa Cruz used CRISPR technology to develop "programmable" cellular models of embryos, called embryoids, from stem cells, avoiding the need to experiment on actual embryos. flag These models can self-organize into structures resembling the early stages of natural embryo formation, providing a more accurate baseline for studying developmental disorders and mutations. flag This breakthrough could lead to a better understanding of how to treat various developmental issues.
