"Maternal-paternal communication in cattle" (M-P Communication for short) is a Marie-Skłodowska Curie Individual Fellowship project funded by the European Commission under the Horizon 2020 Programme. The aim of this project is to understand the role that paternal factors (i. e. semen components) play in the regulation of the maternal reproductive tract, and whether these paternally-driven changes can affect embryo development and pregnancy success in cattle.
