Objectives
To delineate the molecular interaction between decidual human endometrial stromal cells (d-EnSC) and human embryonic stem cell derived trophoblastic spheroids (BAP-EB), and to evaluate the use of BAP-EB-induced d-EnSC invasion as a predictor for cumulative live birth rate in infertile women undergoing IVF
