Official Title: Study of the Effect of Paternal Age on de Novo Mutation Rate by Using Whole Genome Sequencing of IVF Embryos
Brief Summary:
This research project aims to utilise recent advances in whole genome sequencing of preimplantation genetic diagnosis embryos to investigate the impact of paternal age on de novo mutation rates in IVF embryos.Embryos that are deemed unsuitable for transfer following preimplantation genetic testing for monogenic/single gene disorders (PGT-M) due to the detection of genetic abnormalities will be utilized for this study.These embryos will undergo re-biopsy, and both the biopsied samples as well as the remaining…
