The individual research projects focus on testis function, germ cells, and sperm as well as on fertilization and early-stage embryonic development. Over the course of three funding periods, this array shall be broadened to include research topics closely related to the CRC’s starting point, for example sperm-induced ovary activation, embryonic development, developmental defects, and failed implantation.
The key words listed in the schematic provide an overview of the foci and goals of our research.
