Comparative early embryology: <\/strong>we aim to uncover the processes governing cell fate decisions in embryos a few days after fertilization.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Interorganismal fetal-maternal interface: <\/strong>we aim to reproduce the fetal-maternal interface in vitro to study the principles that make pregnancy possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Evolutionary morphogenesis: <\/strong>we want to understand the mechanisms that led to the evolution of striking different placenta shapes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
