Funded Activity Summary

I seek the knowledge required to improve prevention, diagnosis and therapy for men with testicular pathologies by studying what controls early sperm development. My research will delineate how cellular signalling molecules lay the foundation for adult fertility, using animal studies, cell culture and clinical samples. Testis samples from testicular cancer patients will be used to test interventions that may kill tumour cells or offer a therapeutic option to men with impaired spermatogenesis.
