Ovation Fertility, a national network of reproductive endocrinologists and scientific thought leaders, will present new fertility research at the 2018 AAB Education Conference and CRB Symposium in Orlando, Florida, on May 17-19. The three abstracts accepted for oral and poster presentations are the result of collaborative research involving nine scientists at Ovation Fertility's six IVF labs nationwide. In addition to these presentations, Ovation Fertility's Newport Beach IVF Laboratory Director Mitchel C. Schiewe, Ph.D., will present an invited lecture on May 19 on the topic of "Reproductive Tourism: Reproductive Exile or an Insemination Vacation."

Ovation Fertility is a silver sponsor of the event, which is hosted by the American Association of Bioanalysts in conjunction with the College of Reproductive Biology.

"Ovation Fertility brings together the brightest scientific minds in reproductive medicine to focus on collaborative research," says Nate Snyder, Ovation Fertility's cofounder and chief executive officer. "The primary mission of our national network of IVF labs, genetics labs and partner physician practices is to lower the cost of a live birth by innovating more efficient and effective fertility treatments. As one of the nation's largest providers of IVF lab services, we produce a high volume of data spanning embryology, andrology and genetics, making the Ovation Fertility research department one of the most prolific producers of scientific research in the fertility field."

New Fertility Research on IVF Cost, IVF Processes, Egg Freezing

In addition to Schiewe's presentation on reproductive tourism, the three abstracts accepted for presentation at the conference summarize new fertility research that has the potential to reduce the cost and improve the effectiveness of in vitro fertilization and associated procedures, such as egg freezing.

  • Poster presentation: Potential Laboratory Cost Savings for a Blastocyst Preimplantation Genetic Screening (PGS) Vitrification (VTF) Program. This study aimed to critically evaluate the cost benefits of a clinically proven non-commercial, aseptic closed VTF system compared to other commonly used open/hybrid VTF devices, and discuss the importance of cost savings in today's assisted reproductive technology (ART) industry.
  • Oral presentation: Oocyte Cryopreservation: microSecure Vitrification (µS-VTF) No Worse Than the Rest, But Is It an Experimental Procedure? Despite ASRM classifying oocyte cryopreservation as "non-experimental" in 2012, little progress has been made to understand developmental inconsistencies associated with some egg batches. This study's aim was to compare developmental incompetence of oocytes vitrified by µS-VTF in a DMSO-free solution to other conventional open VTF/EG-DMSO systems.
  • Oral presentation: Validation of a Universal Warming/Dilution Protocol for Frozen Embryo Transfers Independent of Vitrification Device/Cryoprotectant. This study aimed to validate a universal warming/dilution approach for all vitrification (VTF) solutions associated with various device systems.
