A huge milestone for the #RhinoFertilityProject! We’ve received new rhino ovarian tissue, crucial for developing fertility preservation techniques to save the Northern White Rhino.
This was possible with @SEZARC and huge thanks to @MveBioSolutions for the shipping containers!
Big thanks to @MveBioSolutions for their brilliant cryogenic shipping containers transferring ovaries for the Rhino Fertility Project. Every reliable delivery brings us closer to our goal of helping save the endangered Northern White Rhino!

We are sad that Janet is leaving us but we wish her the best of luck in her next chapter. She has been a huge asset to the Williams lab. Thank you for everything Janet! ✨✨✨
A real pleasure to present our work at the @Ox_wrh seminar! Our talk, "Ovarian Biology: from Bench to Bedside and Biosphere, from humans to rhino", truly captures the diversity of research in the Williams Group. 🔬🧍♀️🧬🦏 Thank you all for the engaging discussion and curiosity!
Huge congrats to Liv @OliviaGBoardman on smashing your MRes viva! 🎓💥 We’ll miss you so much, but we’re so excited to see where your journey takes you next!! Wishing you every success!🌟🍕🍀#GoodLuck@Ox_wrh
The #PooZoo is back in the spotlight!
This project, lead by @UniofOxford, @ChesterZoo, @revive_restore, is using animal dung to collect living cells for the potential genetic rescue of endangered species.

An animal 'poo zoo' could help protect endangered species. The non-invasive collecting and preserving of animal dung could be the key to Researchers saving endangered species. @BBCNewsround

Turning animal poo into offspring sounds like a zoo keeper’s trick, but it might help save species. @UniofOxford's “poo zoo” project is isolating live cells from dung. “Very early stages, but [...] feeling very +ve,” says @DrSAWilliams. #Conservation https://t.co/EJQhMPl4Du
Heidi’s project on ultra-processed food & female fertility inspired her to go a month without UPFs, making her hyper-aware of how much we rely on them!
“I appreciated the challenge & loved trying new recipes from scratch.” 👩🍳
Heidi’s homemade energy bites were a hit! 😋 @Ox_wrh
Cheers to a new year from the Williams Group!🥂🎉We’re excited for what 2025 has in store as we continue our work in ovarian biology, cryobiology, fertility preservation, and conservation...🌱🦏 Here’s to a year full of discoveries! 🔬 @Ox_wrh#OvarianBiology#FertilityResearch
Season’s greetings from the Williams Lab!🎄🥂 Here’s to a wonderful year of teamwork and discovery! 🔬🦏
Wishing you all warmth and curiosity this holiday season.
Let’s make 2025 a year of even more breakthroughs! 💡
