This project aims to develop the world's first commercially viable system of in vitro fertilisation (IVF) for horses. The equine industry is seeking reproductive technologies that allow rapid genetic gain to improve the health, welfare and quality of progeny. This project will exploit recent breakthroughs in molecular and cell biology, veterinary practice and biotechnology, by assembling these research findings into practical systems and products optimised for successful production of foals in vitro. These technologies will boost the productivity and international competitiveness of Australia's equestrian sporting disciplines, and position the Australian biotechnology sector as global leaders in animal reproductive technologies.

该项目旨在开发世界上第一个针对马的体外受精（IVF）的商业可行系统。马产业正在寻求生殖技术，以允许快速遗传增益来改善后代的健康，福利和质量。该项目将通过将这些研究发现将这些研究结果组装到实用的系统和产品中，以在体外成功生产小马驹，从而利用分子和细胞生物学，兽医实践和生物技术的最新突破。这些技术将提高澳大利亚马术体育学科的生产力和国际竞争力，并将澳大利亚生物技术部门定位为动物生殖技术的全球领导者。
