"Fertility Protection Research Centre Ulm - FePro-Ulm", a new interdisciplinary junior research center for reproductive health with a focus on "fertility protection" is being established at the University of Ulm.
Project: Reproductive medicine is a young field in medicine. Fertility protection is particularly important for oncological patients prior cytotoxic therapies, for patients with severe endometriosis, for transgender individuals as well as for healthy young women who want to postpone their family planning to a later stage of life ("oocyte freezing").

We place particular emphasis on networking opportunities, content and methodological training, mentoring, and personal development opportunities for all scientists.
One thematic focus is on molecular biological studies of cryopreserved mature and pre-pubertal ovarian tissue.
