FERTILITY PRESERVATION FOR CANCER SURVIVORS AND BEYOND |
Capsule |
Male and female fertility preservation became a potent tool option not only for cancer survivors but also for the current delay in family planning or, so called "social freezing" |
Chairpersons |
Dominique De Ziegler, France |
09:00-09:20 |
Recent advances and new frontier in vitrification |
09:20-09:45 |
Cryopreservation of oocytes and ovarian tissue |
09:45-10:05 |
Prepubertal germ cell storage for later transplantation |
10:05-10:30 |
Preservation of fertility by uterine transplantation: Who are the candidates and what results can be expected? |
10:50-12:20 |
SOCIAL FREEZING: GOOD OR BAD NEWS FOR WOMEN? |
|
Capsule |
It seems that social freezing is not synchronized with the need for it. While social freezing is better done before age 35, women in that age group still hope to conceive spontaneously or with treatment. Is it a good solution for the wrong age group? |

10:50-11:10 |

IMPLANTATION |
|
Implantation failure can occur due to many reasons. It's the most crucial step and very little is known about why implantation fails so often

Improving implantation by "freeze all and later transfer," is it now proven to be more efficient? Paul Devroey, Belgium |
16:40-18:10 |
INVASIVE PROCEDURES ON THE EMBRYO: PGS |
|
Capsule |
Different invasive procedures allow selecting and maybe improving the embryo before implantation. Are they safe? |

POOR OVARIAN RESERVE |
|
Capsule |
Poor ovarian reserve is easily recognized and poorly managed. The ideal stimulation for these patients remains a great challenge for the clinician. Is there any better solution? | |

10:50-12:20 |
METHODS FOR EMBRYO SELECTION: TOWARDS SET FOR ALL
|
Capsule | Improved ability to select the best oocytes for fertilization and embryos for implantation will likely increase use of single embryo transfer (SET) technology in IVF. Current screening methods, while providing useful information, are far from ideal - especially when each is used alone. Can a combination of methods, including new technologies, help secure better IVF success rates? |

12:30-14:00 |
TIME-LAPSE: BETTER INCUBATOR, NEW METHOD FOR EMBRYO SELECTION OR JUST NEW COSTLY TOOL? |
|
Capsule | Time-lapse is the new hype in embryo culture and selection. Time-lapse provides information on the timing of cell division, fragmentation, multi-nucleation, compaction, blastulation, and more. It also offers a list of advantages for embryo incubation like flexible gas mixture, grouping of embryos, monitoring, archiving, etc. Is it a better incubator? New method for embryo selection that overrides the biologists |
