Emma Lucas

(She/Her)

My research focuses on the function of the endometrium, the lining of the womb, in determining pregnancy outcomes.

I studied undergraduate Human Biology (Loughborough University, UK) followed by a Masters degree in Assisted Reproduction Technology (University of Nottingham, UK) before obtaining my PhD from the University of Nottingham, UK. I undertook Postdoctoral positions at the University of Southampton, looking at the role of maternal environment on offspring development and long-term health, and then at the University of Warwick, where I investigated the role of the endometrium in recurrent miscarriage. I joined the University of Sheffield in October 2023 as Lecturer in Reproductive Medicine.
