/ˌɛmbriˈɑlədʒi/

Origin: A borrowing from Latin. Etymon: Latin embryologia.

Etymology: < post-classical Latin embryologia (1732 (in a work title) or earlier) < embryo embryo n. + -logia -logy comb. form. Compare French embryologie (1762 or earlier).

Biology and Medicine.

1. The branch of science concerned with the study of the formation and development of the human, animal, or plant embryo (or fetus), and (in later use) with the practical application of this, esp. in assisted reproductive technology and biotechnology.

?1781 W. Perfect Cases Midwifery I. 135 Hippocrates, Hartman, Schurigius, Harvey, Kerkringius, Riolanus, Ruysch, and many other writers, are very curious upon the subject of embryology.

1833 Lancet 16 Feb. 648/2 We find the results obtained in M. Foville's pathological investigations, pointing out the very alterations to which embryology and comparative anatomy would lead us to anticipate.

1851 Southern Q. Rev. Apr. 445 I allude to the science of Comparative Embryology, which speaks of the changes and transformations that take place in the young of animals.

1872 C. Darwin Origin of Species (ed. 6) vii. 203 Against the belief in such abrupt changes, embryology enters a strong protest.

1901 M. Foster Lect. Hist. Physiol. 93 Malpighi may also be regarded as, almost in the same degree, the founder of that great and important branch of biological science which we call embryology.

1951 G. R. de Beer Vertebr. Zool. (ed. 2) xv. 214 It is, however, customary in mammalian embryology only to give the trophoblast the term chorion when it is underlain by the outer mesodermal layer of the extra-embryonic coelom, the mesoderm covering the yolk-sac, or the mesoderm covering the allantois.
