Course description
The aim of the course is to instruct the participants in human reproductive biology with focus on gene regulation and pathways that control the early embryo formation.To provide understanding in complexity of the molecular mechanisms that involve the successfully development of the early cleavage embryo, so that the student can evaluate, troubleshoot, and improve existing assisted reproductive technology (ART) systems.
