Inherited mechanisms of impaired female reproduction – from discovery towards clinical translation
Bidragets beskrivning
Infertility is a common health problem affecting millions of people worldwide. While it is commonly associated with female factors, the condition is both intricate and complex. In up to 30% of cases the cause of infertility remains unexplained. The aim of our study is to unravel the molecular mechanisms underlying female infertility by pinpointing causal genetic factors. We will examine the effects of these factors through cellular experiments. Additionally, we will evaluate the clinical characteristics of women carrying the risk factors and analyze their response to fertility treatments. With these studies, we hope to add new insights into the mechanisms critical for female reproduction. It is our expectation that this research will contribute to the advancement of more precise diagnostics and treatment approaches.
