“non-reproductive organs are annually researched 5-20 times more than reproductive organs leading to an exponentially increasing relative knowledge gap in reproductive sciences” - an important call to action. SRB IFPA

A volte dubito se "Homo sapiens" sia una sintesi appropriata per descrivere la nostra specie. Dopo la pandemia, pure la guerra.

#ESHREjc prepared a live “show” for #ESHRE2022 that will be as🔥and🌶 as it goes! We promise you will be🤯 📝 doi.org/10.1093/humrep… by Jukka Kekäläinen👨‍🎓 🧠Dr. Karen Sermon, Siladitya Bhattacharya,Enrica Bianchi 🏳️‍🌈, Jonathan Pettitt & Nils Lambalk Details: eshre.eu/ESHRE2022/Prog… #eshrejcrt

Let’s try something new - i am looking to recruit a non tenure track assistant professor in northern Italy. I work in cardiac morphogenesis and mechanobiology. I’ll share my tools but you’d be able to pursuit your projects. What would you do? DM if interested

Want to study cryptic female choice and reproductive incompatibility of the partners in humans? Open position for post doc University of Eastern Finland. Deadline 4.8. Please RT. More information and application form here: bit.ly/3xZrfRr doi.org/10.1093/humrep…

ETH Zürich University of York nature For more background on the work, the protein interaction system that made it possible, and the other discoveries the system has enabled, read our latest blog 👇🏻 bit.ly/3BGkur3

We're building a growing list of all the amazing labs working on female reproductive health. BUT we know there are some hidden gems. Can you help us find them? 💎👩‍🔬 bit.ly/3RJ1o8g

Our thoughts on genetic incompatibility & human reproduction are published (on my birthday!) 👇👇 Read along for the report of a very nice discussion, filled w possibilities & many unknowns. Thanks #ESHREjc team + Enrica Bianchi 🏳️‍🌈 Dr. Karen Sermon Jonathan Pettitt academic.oup.com/humrep/advance…

"an unexpected result of applying advanced machine learning methods to biological science has been the revelation of how much we fundamentally still do not understand"

New Spotlight: Enrica Bianchi 🏳️‍🌈 and Gavin Wright University of York discuss work by Nicolas Brukman Benjamin Podbilewicz et al (bit.ly/3UMmxAx) that provides evidence that the sperm surface protein IZUMO1 can induce membrane fusion in cultured cells. bit.ly/3wdfS7I
