Epigenetics and Infertility
Early embryo development constitutes a critical period for the establishment of diverse epigenetic marks. During this period, a global epigenetic reprogramming must occur to activate the embryonic genome and to achieve the first lineage differentiation events. Assisted reproductive techniques can exert a negative effect, impairing epigenetic reprogramming and leading to long term effects in the offspring, or a positive effect, as they may serve to correct defects such as heteroplasmy.
The course will explain the different epigenetic modifications occurring during early development and address different epigenetic phenomena impacting embryo viability and offspring health, such as telomere lengthening, genomic imprinting, preimplantation sexual dimorphism and mitochondrial DNA replication.
Students may withdraw from the contracted courses under certain conditions. If the withdrawal is due to force majeure, the full amount paid for the “Course or Training Payment” will be refunded. It is crucial to communicate and justify this situation as soon as possible, specifically within a “30-day withdrawal period,” provided that the program has not started, no teaching materials have been received, and there are fewer than 4 enrolled students. OVOLEARNING reserves the right to cancel the course if there are fewer than 4 students enrolled. In such a case, the student will be notified 30 days before the start of the course.
