Human Embryology: Part 1 - Fertilisation and Implantation

Human embryonic development is the development and formation of the human embryo. It is characterised by the processes of cell division and cellular differentiation of the embryo that occurs during the early stages of development. In biological terms, the development of the body entails growth from a single-celled zygote to an adult human being. This is the first in a series of podcasts examining the fascinating subject of human embryogenesis; in this podcast, I describe the processes of fertilisation and implantation.
