Dr. Man is currently utilizing the model she developed with her collaborators; a cell-based strategy, combining accelerated perfusion with a direct paracrine delivery of a bioactive payload to transplanted human ovarian tissue. The model is used to test the role of specific secreted factors in human ovarian physiology; it will be further tested on large animal models prior to being translated into patient care.
