New study dives into recurrent pregnancy loss

Associate professor, Winifred Mak, MD, PhD, was awarded $3.4M to study the male factors contributing to recurrent pregnancy loss. Mak plans to focus her study on the role of sperm and DNA fragmentation within the sperm to see if it can explain the cause in some recurrent miscarriages.  She hopes to further connect the dots and discover possible causes related to the health of the sperm so that treatments can be found and couples can be more proactive.
