The success of IVF has remained stagnant for a decade. The focus of a great deal of research is to improve on the current ~30% success rate of IVF. Artificial intelligence (AI), or machines that mimic human intelligence, has been gaining traction for...

Genetic compartmentalization in semen has been observed in previous studies. However, genetic signatures associated with compartmentalization in semen are only beginning to be explored. A total of 2071 partial HIV env sequences for paired blood and s...
Assisted reproductive technology is helping humans by addressing infertility using different medical procedures that help in a successful pregnancy. In vitro fertilization (IVF) is one of those assisted reproduction methods in which the sperm and egg...

In intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI), a single sperm cell is selected and injected into an egg. The quality of the chosen sperm and specifically its DNA fragmentation have a significant effect on the fertilization success rate. However, there i...
The past ten years have seen the rapid expansion of the field of biohybrid robotics. By combining engineered, synthetic components with living biological materials, new robotics solutions have been developed that harness the adaptability of living mu...

Microscopy has long played a pivotal role in the field of assisted reproductive technology (ART). The advent of artificial intelligence (AI) has opened the door for new approaches to sperm and oocyte assessment and selection, with the potential for i...
Over the past 4 decades our ability to maintain a viable human embryo in vitro has improved dramatically, leading to higher implantation rates. This has led to a notable shift to single blastocyst transfer and the ensuing elimination of high order mu...

Human infertility is a major global public health issue estimated to affect one out of six couples, while the number of assisted reproduction cycles grows impressively year over year. Efforts to alleviate infertility using advanced technology are gai...
BACKGROUND: One challenge in the field of in-vitro fertilisation is the selection of the most viable embryos for transfer. Morphological quality assessment and morphokinetic analysis both have the disadvantage of intra-observer and inter-observer var...
