During the 8th European Congress of Reproductive Immunology, November 2010 in Munich, Germany, the European Society of Reproductive Immunology provided the opportunity for young investigators to present their work. Short talks from students and post-doctoral trainees were scheduled immediately after the keynote speakers in each session. The Society presented two "Young Investigator Awards" in basic science as well as in clinical application, sponsored by Elsevier. Here we present a summary of the nominees in a single article. The nominees were asked to give a guided interview to provide an insight into their motivation and career aspirations for the future. We hope that the Young Investigator Award might be an ongoing tool to motivate and encourage young investigators to stay in the field of reproductive immunology and to continue their research on the feto-maternal interface.

Development of Immunocompetence
The initial cells that migrate from the fetal thymus settle within the skin and epithelial tissues lining the mouth, digestive tract, and in females, the uterus and vagina. These cells, including skin-based dendritic cells, serve as antigen-presenting cells, playing a key role in T cell activation.

Somatic Cell Nuclear Transfer
In SCNT, an egg cell is taken from an animal and its nucleus is removed, creating an enucleated egg. Then a somatic cell—any cell that is not a sex...
