Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Male factor issues are responsible for 50% of a couple’s infertility. Male infertility is emerging as an important cause of infertility worldwide, and recent research has improved our understanding of the sperm’s contribution to fertilization and embryo development. New insights into sperm function and fertilization have been uncovered, emphasizing the need for breakthroughs to assist sperm during successful fertilization. This involves understanding the sperm’s ability to navigate the female reproductive tract and overcome biological barriers. Continued research in these areas promises to improve diagnostic and treatment options for affected individuals. This Special Issue on “Latest Research on Male Infertility” will feature the articles related to male reproductive research advancements, with insights identified at the molecular level. For this Special Issue, we invite you and your colleagues to submit an original research article or comprehensive review article related to this field.
Dr. Manesh Kumar Panner Selvam
