embryoid
Resembling early development
Embryoid describes something resembling an embryo in form or structure.
In biology, an embryoid body is a cluster of cells that mimics early embryonic development, used in stem cell research: The researchers cultured embryoid bodies to study differentiation.
The term appears in technical contexts where scientists work with embryo-like structures without using actual embryos.
