Research groups

The Almstrup Group works at the intersection of genetics, epigenetics, and reproductive biology. We study how genetic and epigenetic variation, together with testicular gene expression and sperm cell function, influences reproductive outcomes

Translational research and innovation in clinical biochemistry of hormones and growth factors involved in sex differentiation and maturation, child growth, and adult reproductive health and human biomonitoring of environmental chemicals potentially affecting endocrine systems.

Through work in large-scale cohorts, epidemiological studies and laboratory investigations we explore trends in and determinants of testicular function and pathology.

​is part of the Department of Growth of Reproduction at Copenhagen University Hospital – Rigshospitalet.

The Translational Reproduction and Fertility Group conducts translational research focused on human sperm physiology. Main topics of the group are non-hormonal unisex contraception, human fertility, and human male epigenetic inheritance.
