Rapid and efficient generation of human 8-cell-like cells for embryo modelling

Arda Odabas, Sila Unlu, Eren Ozturk, Nilya Karasurmeli, Kelly Hu, Marion Leleu, Can Aztekin, Tamer T. Önder

This paper develops a method to rapidly generate human 8-cell-like cells (ri8CLCs) using small molecules, enabling efficient modeling of early embryogenesis.
