Funded Activity Summary

The normal processes of development of the embryo require that the information encoded in chromosomes be reprogrammed soon after fertilization. This process is rather fragile and disturbance of the early embryo can upset it. Recent studies for the chief investigator's provide new understanding of the normal processes of reprogramming. The project will explore and validate the implications of these new discoveries and provide a basis for future alleviation of abnormalities to development.
