Attention (Hook)
Endometriosis is a disease that affects nearly 10% of women of reproductive age globally.
It takes an average of 7–10 years to diagnose and has limited treatment options.
Chronic pain and infertility are common, yet the condition remains poorly understood.
How my research is different
My research focuses on activated vitamin D and oleuropein, which is a natural compound from olive leaves that hasn't been studied widely yet.
This is a non-hormonal intervention, unlike current treatments with significant side effects.
Targets the disease at the cellular level rather than masking symptoms.
How it will make a difference (So what?)
Investigates oleuropein's impact on the movement, survival, and spread of endometriosis cells.
Aims to develop safer, more effective treatments.
Could dramatically improve the quality of life for millions of women.
Approach/Goal
Cell-level experiments will be conducted to study the cellular effects of oleuropein and the activated vitamin D, separately and together.
Use Human Cells to evaluate therapeutic potential on the legions.
Contribute to developing a new class of non-hormonal treatments addressing root causes.
