Our Institute has developed a research platform that enables us to get closer to deciphering the in vivo molecular dialogue between the embryo and its mother, in the period from fertilization to nesting in the uterus. The main feature of our research is our in vivo platform based on the collection of biological specimens from a preconception cohort. Through the integration of various analytical technologies we seek to reveal these signals and find biomarkers of this process.
