A recent study shows evidence of what scientists have feared for a long time: the effects of microplastics on human fertility. For the first time, scientists have discovered microplastics in the ...

For years, scientists have sought to create a human artificial ovary, restoring fertility in patients without other options. The first cellular map of a human ovary, recently developed at the ...

A team of researchers from the University of Michigan earned recognition from Forbes magazine contributor Juergen Eckhardt for creating the first comprehensive map of the human ovary. Forbes named the ...

Since 2016, a global consortium of researchers have been mapping the cells of the human body. Known as the Human Cell Atlas, the objective is to understand and improve health outcomes, particularly ...

A new 'atlas' of the human ovary provides insights that could lead to treatments restoring ovarian hormone production and the ability to have biologically related children, according to engineers. A ...

A new imaging technique has revealed a previously unexplored ecosystem within the ovary that may influence how fast human eggs age. The discovery could open new possibilities for slowing ovarian ...

Scientists have created an "atlas" of ovarian aging. The atlas suggests ovaries are an untapped, rapid way to study human longevity treatments. One researcher is testing antiaging drugs on ovaries, ...

The ticking of the biological clock is especially loud in the ovaries — the organs that store and release a woman’s eggs. From age 25 to 40, a woman’s chance of conceiving each month decreases ...

An ovary is only a few centimeters wide, but its precious cargo is even smaller. Oocytes are a few dozen micrometers in diameter and are individually wrapped in layers of specialized cells that form a ...
