Herta A, von Mengden L, Akin N, Billooye K, Coucke W, van Leersum J, et al.
Biol Reprod . 2022 Jun; 107(4):998-1013. PMID: 35717588
Establishing an ideal human follicle culture system for oncofertility patients relies mainly on animal models since donor tissue is scarce and often of suboptimal quality. The in vitro system developed...

Akin N, Richani D, Liao X, Zhao Y, Herta A, Billooye K, et al.
J Assist Reprod Genet . 2022 Jan; 39(1):127-140. PMID: 34984599
Purpose: In vitro maturation (IVM) is a technology that generates mature oocytes following culture of immature cumulus-oocyte complexes (COC) in vitro. IVM is characterized by minimal patient stimulation, making it...
