This study uses spatial transcriptomics to map gene expression gradients in the human endometrium, revealing coordinated regeneration and niche architecture during menstrual breakdown.

This paper develops an in vitro model of the human chorion using blastocysts to generate trophoblast organoids and extraembryonic mesoderm cells, enabling study of placental development and pathophysiology.

This paper introduces CloneSelect, a multi-kingdom genetic barcoding system that enables precise isolation of target clones using CRISPR base editing to trigger reporter gene expression.
