Studying mammalian ontogeny from the cellular level
The Genetics and Reproduction Lab studies mammalian ontogeny from the cellular level.
The lab works to clarify how early embryos of livestock develop and differentiate, and how pregnancy is recognized between the embryo and the mother.
The lab is also developing techniques for efficient embryo production and cryopreservation to raise conception rates.
Key terms
- Ontogeny
- The process by which a fertilized egg repeatedly divides and develops into a whole body.
- Early embryo
- An embryo at the stage shortly after fertilization, when cell division has just begun.
- Conception rate
- The proportion of artificial inseminations or embryo transfers that result in pregnancy.
ResearchResearch themes
The lab studies mammalian ontogeny from the cellular level. It investigates the development and differentiation of early embryos in livestock, and the mechanisms by which pregnancy is recognized between the embryo and the mother.
