Uterine Selection of Human Embryos at Implantation

Scientific Reports, 2014
Human embryos frequently harbor large-scale complex chromosomal errors that impede normal development. Affected embryos may fail to implant although many first breach the endometrial epithelium and embed in the decidualizing stroma before being rejected ...
