​Description:

​What if eggs could be created from skin cells? What if we could solve infertility?

​Join us for an exclusive conversation with Dr. Paula Amato, Professor of Obstetrics and Gynecology at the OHSU School of Medicine and immediate past-president of the American Society for Reproductive Medicine, to explore in vitro gametogenesis (IVG) - one of the next frontiers in ReproTech.

​We’ll dive into:

• ​What "in vitro gametogenesis" (IVG) is

• ​Her team’s recent paper and what the latest findings reveal

• ​The science of IVG: where we are today and what still needs to be achieved

• ​The ethical and societal implications of creating eggs and sperm from somatic cells

• ​What the future of fertility could look like in the next decade

​There will be an opportunity for an audience Q&A at the end.

​This is a rare chance to meet the scientist at the forefront of shaping reproductive medicine and the future of fertility.
