We are a biomedical discovery institute breaking down barriers between disciplines.
About us
The Crick is a distinctive biomedical research institute. We’re committed to advancing, promoting, and sharing understanding of human health and disease. We do that by attracting talented and ambitious people from all disciplines and backgrounds and giving them the support and freedom they need to succeed. Inside the Crick, you’ll discover scientists working to stretch the very limits of what we know about how life works. Their research holds the key to answering fundamental questions about human health and disease. Our bold and innovative research projects bring together scientists and technicians from all disciplines in the pursuit of discovery without boundaries. With the support of our partners, we’re bridging the gap between discovery and application to help change lives for the better. And through our dynamic structure, we’re able to develop the science leaders of tomorrow. That’s our bold idea, tell us yours. Cover image taken at the Crick by Thomas Angus, Imperial College London.

Researchers at the Crick have uncovered which genes on the Y chromosome regulate the development of sperm and affect fertility in male mice. This could eventually help us to understand male infertility. The research was led by first author Jeremie Subrini with senior author James Turner, and teams from our Sex Chromosome Biology Lab, Genetic Modification Service and Utrecht University. https://lnkd.in/eH2gqNqS
