Data is useful! But it seems like (I am not an economist) the incentive structures around these offices are failing. Maybe the benefits need to be more immediate / obvious / visceral.
First of all - very cool that they were able to image this and work out the mechanical mechanism in such detail.
Second - the rupture event looks so violent but iiuc it’s actually highly controlled:
- the rupture site is thinned early in the ovulation process
- the expansion step pulls in fluid to the ovary (builds internal pressure)
- the contraction phase restricts the cell volume (which also builds internal pressure)
- the oocyte is launched out of the cell at a relatively high speed
