You can register and bookmark the reference for later recovery.
If you register, you can then retrieve the links you have looked at as form of professional development for accreditation purposes.
Better still, if you register, you can request a selection be emailed to you weekly. The aim of this is to encourage ART workers to widen their readings and education.
IF you are a QAP supervisor, you can register your staff to receive the newsletters and use their links as evidence for professional development.
If you are a producer or Supplier, please add one or more hyperlinks to the site. Use 'Contribute' to send me the URL to specific products that ART workers may find of interest.

A personalised predictor model could help women decide whether their next cycle of IVF is going to succeed, say US researchers. A team from Stanford University in California developed the model using clinical data from a patient's previous failed IVF...

Conclusions For the first time, our study shows that in vitro fertilization associated with embryo culture strongly modify the placental expression profile, long after embryo manipulations, meaning that the stress of artificial environment is memoriz...

This work demonstrates the conservation of a reproductive protein throughout eumetazoa, its predominant testis-biased expression in diverse bilaterian species, and conservation of a male gametogenic requirement in mice. This shows an ancient gametoge...

PLC was variably detectable in three localities within the sperm head: the equatorial segment and acrosomal/post-acrosomal region. Variability in PLC localization in sperm from fertile males may reflect differences in oocyte activation capabilities b...

Here, we will discuss pH homeostasis in early mammalian development, focussing on recent developments highlighting the unusual and unexpected scenario of pH regulation during oocyte growth and maturation. ...
WHEN the embryonic heart starts to beat, it kick-starts the production of blood from cells lining the growing aorta, two independent research teams have shown. ...

Researchers at the Universities of Sheffield and Warwick, in northern and central England, say the chicken must have come first as the formation of eggs is only possible thanks to a protein found in the chicken’s ovaries. ...

A gene involved in the production of sperm is shared by almost all living animals, including sea anemones, worms, insects, marine invertebrates, fish and humans. The finding suggests the ability to produce sperm arose just once, 600 million years ag...

CONCLUSIONS: This meta-analysis provides compelling evidence for a significant negative effect of cigarette smoking upon clinical outcomes of ART and should be presented to infertility patients who smoke cigarettes in order to optimize success rates....
