Why Does Female Fertility Decline So Fast? The Key Is the Ovary. New in Science: @czbiohub & @UCSF team led by Eliza Gaylord, Mariko Foecke, Ryan Samuel, Bikem Soygur, Tara McIntyre, @FaranakFattahi & @DJ_Laird compared human & mouse ovaries across age.

Basic science is curiosity in action. It’s the pursuit of fundamental knowledge about how the world works. It’s not about chasing a cure today. It’s about understanding the scientific building blocks of knowledge so we’re ready for the breakthroughs of tomorrow.
