Centre for Research and Development of Reproductive Scientists (ReproTrack.MS)

Basic data for this project

Description

Infertility is on the rise, indicating an overall decrease in Reproductive Health. This emerging scientific and societal issue needs to be addressed by integrated research approaches of highly-skilled reproductive scientists. However, scientists with the required comprehensive expertise as well as career tracks for becoming scientific and/or clinical leaders in this field are rare. The establishment of the Junior Scientist Research Centre ReproTrack.MS strives to narrow this gap. ReproTrack.MS fosters translational research on reproduction and infertility, bringing the concept “FromBench to Bedside and Back” to life. Accordingly, the Junior Scientist Research Centre is designed to 1) break barriers between disciplines as well as basic and clinical science, 2) provide interdisciplinary scientific and clinical education, and 3) deliver hands-on guidance in career development and leadership. We hereby prepare Medical and Clinician Scientists for an academic career in Reproductive Health.
