Item 5.   Other Events.
- -----------------------
     On March 16, 1998 Embryo Development Corporation (the
"Registrant") was advised by The Nasdaq Stock Market that is failed
to meet the continued listing requirements of The Nasdaq SmallCap
Market.  Specifically, the Registrant failed to maintain the
required market value of the public float of $1,000,000. 

     The Registrant is exploring various alternatives which would
satisfy The Nasdaq SmallCap Market continued listing requirement.
There is, however, no assurance that the Registrant will be
successful in satisfying such requirements.  Failure to meet the
requirements will result in the Registrant's securities being
traded on the NASD OTC Bulletin Board.  As a result, the price of,
and the volume of trading in, the Registrant's securities may be
negatively effected.

     On April 7, 1998, the Registrant held its Annual Meeting of
Stockholders (the "Meeting").  At the Meeting, the Registrant's
stockholders failed to approve a proposed one-for-nine (1-for-9)
reverse stock split of its Common Stock and Series A Preferred
Stock.
