When scientists search for life on exoplanets, they often focus on specific features, such as signs of water or gases like oxygen and methane, that might indicate biological activity. This study shows that if scientists examine 40–80 planets and find no signs of life, they can confidently conclude that fewer than 10–20% of similar planets harbor life.</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/space" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>space</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/science" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>science</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/scicomm" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>scicomm</span></a></p>

Daniel MacPhee 🔬🧬🧫🇨🇦<p>“By analyzing guinea pig embryos using advanced single-cell RNA sequencing, the researchers mapped gene expression patterns during embryo development. The results show that the preimplantation development of guinea pigs, i.e., the time before the embryo attaches to the uterine wall, is surprisingly similar to that of humans.” <br><a href="https://mas.to/tags/Science" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Science</span></a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/Scicomm" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Scicomm</span></a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/Development" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Development</span></a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/Reproduction" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Reproduction</span></a> <br><a href="https://medicalxpress.com/news/2025-04-guinea-pigs-early-embryonic.html" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">medicalxpress.com/news/2025-04</span><span class="invisible">-guinea-pigs-early-embryonic.html</span></a></p>
