What an inspiring two days at #ARU2025! Amazing science, thought‑provoking discussions, and plenty of new ideas to take back to the lab. We are already looking forward to the next one!"🪄

I recently spoke to @FaScienceLabs (https://t.co/2TdwCuSnso) about the contributions of environmental and lifestyle factors for healthy reproductive function and #fertility🌏. Check out the #podcast on here on #Spotify: https://t.co/iXqDO0i5Go or #YouTube: https://t.co/dulWes94QE

More evidence to suggest environmental factors impact on health & fertility in @ConversationEDU by @amy_winship & @mpgreen13

[amy winship @amy_winship]

A new study has linked traffic noise and pollution to infertility - but the effects differed for men and women 🌍 @mpgreen13 @HuttLab @ReproductionSRB

In our 🆕 peer perspectives article we address 2 🔥 questions:

❄️ Is freezing gametes/tissue the only strategy to circumvent the harm of chemotherapy on the ovary?

💊 Are chemoprotective agents the future or fertility preservation?

Together, our data demonstrate that BRCA1 is a key regulator of oocyte number and quality in females and suggest that caution should be used in relying on AMH as a reliable marker of the ovarian reserve in this context.

[Hutt Lab @HuttLab]

An estimated 1 in 350 people carry germline BRCA1/2 mutations, which confer an increased risk of developing breast and ovarian cancer & may also contribute to subfertility.

[Hutt Lab @HuttLab]

Given the critical role of the BRCA proteins in mediating DNA repair, our data extend current knowledge of quality control mechanisms in the germline & lay foundations for future studies to test specific effects of genotoxic insults on oocytes in context of loss of BRCA1. 🧬
