University of Michigan researchers create cellular-level map of human egg formation, paving way for artificial ovaries and infertility treatments.

University of Michigan researchers have created the first cellular-level map of human egg formation, paving the way for potentially creating artificial ovaries. The atlas of the human ovary provides insights to restore ovarian hormone production and offers treatments for infertility. Using frozen and stored tissues, researchers could create artificial ovaries, extending the fertility window for cancer patients and providing new hope for infertile women.
