Researchers at the University of Bern have developed an artificial placenta that mimics how substances pass from mother to unborn child. The model could help scientists better understand whether medications are safe during pregnancy, an area where evidence is often limited. By using real human cells instead of relying heavily on animal testing, the breakthrough may lead to safer treatments, more precise medical guidance, and fewer uncertainties for pregnant women in the future.
