Dr Mark Hill Pazartesi 14 September 2026 Introduction Welcome to the Embryology education and research website in its 20th year online! There are many ways to find what you are looking for. Click on the image term or use the lefthand menu items or use the search window at the top of the page. New - what is new on this Wiki Site Map - where the content is located Contributors - who has contributed Bookmark with:    https://embryology.med.unsw.edu.au Current number of topic pages 6,455 10 Popular Pages   OK these are not my rankings, but by you the viewer. These are the top ten popular pages based upon page views. I have excluded the Main page, student projects and undergraduate course pages. Note, this data has not been updated since 1 January 2016, when page visit logs were removed. 1 January 2016 (EST) Embryonic Development‏‎ (399,216 views) Placenta Development‏‎ (183,296 views) Timeline human development‏‎ (154,106 views) Neural System Development‏‎ (116,916 views) Mouse Development‏‎ (115,361 views) Respiratory System Development‏‎ (112,977 views) Placenta - Abnormalities‏‎ (111,887 views) Implantation‏‎ (111,620 views) Fetal Development‏‎ (97,150 views) Chicken Development‏‎ (89,201 views) Start Here This is the Main Page of the website, clicking the top lefthand icon or the menu item will always bring you to here. There are several different ways to find what you are looking for: click the major topic on the large left hand image, the Site Map also links to major topic sections, the Category option will show related materials, or simply use the search box.

"The ability to study human post-implantation development remains limited due to ethical and technical challenges associated with intrauterine development after implantation....only genetically unmodified human naïve human ES cells...recapitulate the organization of nearly all known lineages and compartments of post-implantation human embryos including epiblast, hypoblast, extra-embryonic mesoderm, and trophoblast surrounding the latter layers...These human complete SEMs demonstrated developmental growth dynamics that resemble key hallmarks of post-implantation stage embryogenesis up to 13-14 days post-fertilization (dpf) (Carnegie stage 6a)."
