This work will help to advance our basic understanding of how the human body produces adrenal cells, and may contribute to the development of therapies for adrenal disorders. This follows our December 2020 support for Professor Sasaki’s research on gamete development. It falls within our focus area of scientific research, specifically within our interest in advancing human health and wellbeing.
