  In the Einstein-Cartan-Sciama-Kibble theory of gravity, the intrinsic spin of
fermionic matter generates spacetime torsion and induces gravitational
repulsion at extremely high densities. This repulsion prevents the collapsing
spin-fluid matter in a black hole from forming a singularity. Instead, the
interior of a black hole with a stiff equation of state becomes a new universe,
which contracts until a (big) bounce and then expands. We derive the equations
describing the dynamics of our Universe, formed in such a scenario, in terms of
the conformal time which is a convenient variable for testing signatures of the
contracting phase in the Cosmic Microwave Background radiation.
