Ever wondered how Hofbauer cells (human fetal placental macrophages) are generated during pregnancy? We aimed to investigate this in our latest preprint! biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Happy to share this review: Modeling the Human Placenta to Investigate Viral Infections During Pregnancy. Lots of cool placental infection work out there and only more to be learned with newly established trophoblast models! frontiersin.org/article/10.338…

Very excited to start my new position at Conception tomorrow!! šŸŽ‰Can’t wait to dive into this new #research field! Oh and happy to say I am #leavingacademia Thank you to all my mentors who helped get me here and to all of the beautiful trophoblast I’ve cultured over the years!

FMI researchers & collaborators at Wellcome Sanger Institute Cambridge University & EMBL-EBI mapped the full trajectory of placental development—work that could offer insights into pregnancy disorders and help develop better experimental models of the human placenta. fmi.ch/news-events/ar…

Celebrated Conception's office warming last week with our remote team flying in too. I'm so excited for this year šŸ™‚šŸ„ššŸ„ššŸ„š

Lots has been said about the potential + promise of embryo-like models, but what are the challenges and hold-ups? What's still tricky? And what do we need to overcome? šŸ¤” Very much enjoyed working on this perspective with Rugg-Gunn Lab and Patrick Tam! šŸ”Ž tinyurl.com/2jyjmn7d

What a flurry of excitement #ISSCR2023 ! As exciting as the recent preprints are, let’s be clear: these are not the first human embryo-like models and they won’t be the last. They are also not embryos. Like any model, they are only as good as the questions we ask of them! (1/3)

We've gotten very close to generating human eggs from stem cells! Rob Stein from NPR came to Conception to learn about our process. npr.org/2023/07/12/118…

The human placenta is unique and shrouded in mystery. Now, samples collected by Ashley Moffett 35 years ago revealed the most detailed account of its invasion of the uterus to date. I. Emilie Steinmark reports. Nardhy Gomez @CamPathology Wayne State University bit.ly/43Ckhzm

šŸ”¬ Scientists at @CamPathology Cambridge Reproduction have grown ā€˜mini-placentas’ in the lab and used them to see how the placenta develops and interacts with the womb. 🤰 The findings could help scientists better understand - and potentially treat - pre-eclampsia.

Exciting work out today from Ashley Moffett and collaborators showcasing an innovative application of trophoblast organoids. Congratulations to all the authors! sciencedirect.com/science/articl…
