Overview

Brief Summary

The mail aim of the present study is to use molecular methods to analyze the ability of human preimplantation embryos to repair their DNA

Detailed Description

The main aim of the present study is to investigate the DNA repair pathways of preimplantation embryos, examining the events that take place following induction of a DSB at a unique targeted site. The investigators aim to address questions concerning the functionality of the DNA repair mechanism(s) in developing embryos, before and after genome activation.
