Funded by the German Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Energy, the research initiative is being carried out in collaboration with two additional RWTH institutes and the municipality of Simmerath.
Dr Jo Muter, study author and researcher at Warwick Medical School, emphasized the traditional view of miscarriages, saying many women are told they've just had 'bad luck'. Our findings suggest that the womb itself may be setting the stage for pregnancy loss even before conception takes place.
The collaboration between diverse departments and institutions showcases the interdisciplinary nature of modern biological research, reflecting how complex questions require multi-faceted approaches to discovery.
