26.06.20252nd Zuri-Repro Network | Zurich Research Network for Reproductive Biology meeting

Zurich hosts top class researchers in different aspects of reproductive biology, ranging from medical doctors and veterinarians performing fertility treatments to basic researchers studying mammalian germ cells, embryonic development, maternal-embryo interactions, and endometrial disorders. The Zuri-Repro Network connects these researchers, providing a platform to exchange ideas and techniques, fostering Zürich’s potential as a reproductive biology research hub. To learn more about the Zuri-Repro Network, please visit our H2R research website. 

Fostering Excellence through Collaborations, Interdisciplinarity and Transnationality
Our research groups tackle different aspects of reproduction, including germ cell development, embryonic cell divisions,  and epigenetic transgenerational inheritance. We use different approaches that complement each other. One of our goals is to facilitate interdisciplinary collaborations. In addition, our network includes multiple clinicians favouring translation of basic research findings to the clinics.

Help early career researchers
We organize a yearly meeting and share information via an open mailing list. Such information can include new publications, request of technical support, and job alerts. Early career researchers will gain from increased visibility and networking opportunities.
