Biography
A respected reproductive biologist and authority on uterine receptivity and placental development, Professor Guiying Nie obtained her PhD from the University of Essex, UK. She then travelled to the United States where she completed postdoctoral training at the Brookhaven National Laboratory in New York. In 1995, she joined Prince Henry’s Institute, now Hudson Institute of Medical Research, and embarked on research in reproductive biology. Now a Fellow of the Society of Reproductive Biology, she remains fascinated by this exciting area of research.
Research Interest
With a focus on the uterus and intrauterine environment for embryo implantation, placental development, and long-term health consequences, Prof Nie works closely with specialist clinicians to address key women’s health issues. Her current research interests include uterine infertility and receptivity for embryo implantation, non-hormonal contraception, endometrial cancer, placental development and diseases of pregnancy, particularly pre-eclampsia.
