1. Biochemical and biomechanical modulation of the in vitro retina
Abstract : The porcine retinal explant culture paradigm offers the possibility to study retinal health, disease and development independently from the surrounding tissues of the eye. Retina-intrinsic effects of molecular and mechanical cues on the isolated retinal sheet can thus be studied with great precision. READ MORE

4. In vitro models aiming for fertility preservation
Abstract : Fertility preservation is considered a great hope to people suffering from infertility as a consequence of developmental or genetic cause, a disease itself or its treatments sequelae. In vitro models are fundamental to enrich our knowledge about human germ cell development and its regulation, to generate and screen new therapeutic measures and might provide a tool that can be transferred to clinical use to treat infertility.

5. Regulation of human ovarian folliculogenesis in vitro
Abstract : Cryopreservation of ovarian tissue containing immature oocytes is one approach to preserving the potential fertility of young women who risk losing their oocytes as a consequence of treatment with anti-cancer agents, or genetic disorders. This cryopreserved tissue can then be transplanted back into the ovary when the woman wants to have children. READ MORE
