Highlights will include the “Robert G Edwards Nobel Prize Laureate” lecture, newly conceived “countercurrent” lectures by leading experts, as well as an inspiring fetomaternal medicine program and its relationship to IVF, sessions on early prenatal diagnosis, pregnancy support, age-related risks, nutrition, the epidemic of multiple pregnancies, gynecological infertility-related diseases, and more.
