Infertility and birth defects often arise due to improper genetic quality control during meiosis. We are working with Marcus Smolka’s lab in Molecular Biology and Genetics to resolve how the cellular DNA damage response ensures genetic quality control during meiosis and enables the efficient and accurate production of gametes.
