A better understanding of the way the ovary develops could help unravel the condition of premature menopause, a distressing condition that affects hundreds of thousands of British women.
It could also one day lead to a drug that puts the ovaries on 'pause', delaying menopause and preserving a woman's stock of eggs until she feels ready to have a family.

About Catherine: I am mom to three grown sons, two grandchildren and two rescue dogs. After years of raising my boys as a single mom, I remarried a wonderful man who had never had a child of his own. Unexpectedly, I found myself pregnant at 49!
Sadly we lost that precious baby at 8 weeks, and decided to try again. Five more losses, turned down for donor egg, foster care and adoption due to my age and losses - we have accepted that there will be no more babies in our house.
