Research
Program
Research in our laboratory investigates basic and applied aspects of
gamete physiology and endocrinology in horses. Areas of gamete research
include oocyte collection, maturation and transfer; in vitro
fertilization; and nuclear transfer. Areas of endocrine research include
regulation of prostaglandin F2 alpha secretion during luteolysis and
maternal recognition of pregnancy. The goal of this research is to
increase the reproductive efficiency of horses and lead to the
development of new assisted reproductive techniques for horses.
