Investigating human-relevant environmental stressors relating to physical, social and biological exposures in mammals.

There is an urgent need to understand how different human-relevant exposures influence reproductive tissues/fertility. Key to this is defining if exposure responses are general or specific, the impact of contextual factors such as genetic background or age, and ultimately defining the impact on offspring. This project systematically dissects five human-relevant environmental stressors relating to physical, social and biological exposures in mammals.
