Associate Professor Mark NottleResearch Interests:The Reproductive Biotechnology Group has an international reputation in the general areas of reproductive biology and the development of associated technologies for biomedical and agricultural applications. In collaboration with a number of university, institute and hospital research groups in Australia as well as overseas, current research is focused in the general area of regenerative medicine in particular stem cell research, as well as the development of assisted reproductive technologies including in vitro oocyte maturation.

Isolation  and characterisation of a new  stem cell type

Current research in the Laboratory is  focussed on characterising a new embryonic  stem cell isolated by us .This breakthrough will  impact on the development of cell based therapies for a range of diseases including Type 1 diabetes  for which no effective treatment currently exists as well as having other applications such as drug discovery . This cell type is patent protected and we have formed  a Company to commercialise   this research.

Improving Human IVF outcomes

Other research being undertaken in the Laboratory  includes developing new approaches to human IVF aimed at overcoming the need for hormonal stimulation which is around half the cost of an IVF cycle. This involves adding hormones and growth factors found in the follicle to  in vitro oocyte maturation media and examining embryo development.

Biomarkers for  overcoming early embryonic loss

Industry sponsored research includes the development of molecular selection markers for improving livestock growth  and reproductive performance. The later of  which may has  implications for overcoming early embryonic loss and recurrent miscarriage in humans.

Honours and PhD projects are available in al of these areas.
