RESEARCH AT PREMIER SPERM DONORS
KEY RESEARCH AREAS
We investigate how lifestyle and biological factors affect sperm function.
Our research includes:
- The role of mitochondria in sperm energy
- The impact of diet, exercise, and supplementation
- DNA fragmentation and its relationship to fertility outcomes
We prospectively follow the outcomes of sperm donation to improve success rates and refine our program.
We track:
- Pregnancy outcomes
- Live birth rates
- Traits of high-performing donors
Our most advanced research focuses on epigenetics—how environmental and behavioral factors alter gene expression in sperm.
Key areas include:
- How epigenetic changes may contribute to chronic disease risk
- How sperm epigenetics might impact the health of future generations
- Understanding transgenerational inheritance via sperm
WHY IT MATTERS
While female fertility has long been studied, male fertility — especially the genetic and epigenetic contribution of sperm — remains underexplored. Our goal is to help build healthier families by offering access to thoroughly studied, ethically collected, and scientifically advanced sperm donations.
WHAT'S NEXT
Our team will publish research findings in peer-reviewed journals and share updates as new discoveries are made. We’re excited to contribute meaningful knowledge to the fertility field and help shape the future of reproductive science.

Premier Sperm Donors partners with Life Research Oxford, a private laboratory based in the United Kingdom, to advance cutting-edge research on sperm epigenetics. Together, we explore how lifestyle, environment, and genetic expression in sperm may influence fertility outcomes and the long-term health of donor-conceived children. This collaboration places us at the forefront of transgenerational reproductive science.
