Reproductive biology
The research group “Reproductive biology” has a well equipped research laboratory at the Department of Women’s and Children’s Health/Obstetrics and Gynaecology Department. The laboratory is equipped with facilities for cell culturing, contractility measurements and biochemical analysis such as qPCR, immunohistochemistry and Western blot. At the laboratory there are senior researchers, PhD-students, post docs, students doing their master's thesis and technicians.
The research group has two sub-groups:
- Clinical and experimental reproductive biology
- Reproduktive medicine
