Improving Primordial Follicle Survival After Transplantation of Cryopreserved Hum
Description: Premature ovarian failure and infertility are significant consequences of cancer treatments with major impact on quality of life and public health. Transplantation of cryopreserved ovarian tissue is one of the emerging key fertility preservation strategies in cancer patients but the technique is limited due to low survival of eggs in ovarian tissue. The overall goal of this project is to enhance ovarian graft survival and function by developing pharmacological treatments that can enhance new vessel development in ovarian transplants.
