PhD Scholarship in Reproductive Biology
Scholarship Description
A PhD research project is available in 2008 for studies of factors that regulate the establishment, activation, development, and growth of ovarian follicles in a range of animal models that alter gene activity, follicle supply, and the action of estrogen in the fetal and postnatal ovary. Controversial notion that follicles may self-renew from as yet unidentified stem cell populations from intra- or extraovarian sources will form part of these studies. Techniques will include: gene expression, histology, immunocytochemistry, confocal and stereological analysis, electronmicroscopy, 2-D and 3-D biomapping, animal surgery, data analysis and publication. Application method: In writing or email - include CV, academic record and contact details for 2 or 3 referees.
