Caption: Life cycle illustration of transgenic rhesus macaque monkey embryo research being done by professor Thaddeus Golos, including rhesus preimplantation embryonic development, placental development, and mother with infant. Clockwise from upper left is:

  1. A fertilized rhesus macaque embryo.
  2. Early cleavage stage embryo.
  3. Morula stage embryo where cells on the outside of the embryo are committing themselves to become the placenta.
  4. Blastocyst stage embryo. The embryo was was injected with the gene-caarrying vector at this stage.
  5. A later blastocyst-stage embryo.
  6. A cross section of the placenta showing the fetal and maternal sides.
  7. The successful outcome of pregnancy, mother rhesus macaque and infant.
