Embryology Hands On Workshop

Date Wednesday, June 7, 2023
Time 12:00pm - 5:00pm
Location Drake

Curiosity is at the core of science and medicine. If you have wondered what’s involved in micro-surgery of single cells and embryos-something performed daily your IVF lab? Or how about embryo biopsy, oocyte and embryo vitrification and warming in real-time?

Well, step into our laboratory…

Walk through six hands-on stations directed by experts in assisted reproductive technology. This workshop will answer your questions through this tactile experience with active direction and guidance. Doing is learning and your experience will inform you in ways that will better prepare you to help your patients to understand the assisted reproduction techniques prescribed in their treatments.. This workshop will feature opportunities to learn how oocytes and embryos are handled in the lab; how culture plates are labeled and prepared and how intact chain of custody by “witnessing” is achieved. The loading of embryo transfer catheters will also be highlighted and will reinforce this critical step in the clinical procedure.

As the Chair of this workshop, Dr. Kathryn Go has reached out to experts to provide an experience not found anywhere else. Co-Chair Dr. Kathy Miller will lead a hands-on station, guiding participants along the way.

This singular opportunity will be directed by:

Dr. Kathryn Go, Chair
Dr. Kathy Miller, Co-Chair
Dr. Charles Bormann
Dr. Kristen Ivani
Dr. Abeer Sahlia
Wayne Caswell

This is a perfect opportunity for junior embryologists, lab scientist, Fellows, surgeons, a nurse or team member. Frankly, anyone who wants to learn more about and understand cutting edge IVF lab techniques should attend.
