Our goal is to better understand the basic mechanism of germ cell and embryonic development. Specific areas of interest include:
- oocyte growth and meiotic maturation,
- folliculogenesis,
- spermatogenic stem cells,
- maternal-fetal communication during implantation,
- genomic imprinting in gametes and early embryos,
- chromosomal abnormalities and foetal loss.
Our faculty are also active in the undergraduate and graduate teaching programes of McGill University and contribute to training residents and fellows.
