FROZEN EMBRYO CHILDREN. "Children born from vitrified blastocysts have significantly higher birthweight than those born from non-frozen blastocysts." This is consistent with the experience in cattle, but in the latter case, anatomical issues have been reported to occur. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Embryo_cryopreservation View in LinkedIn

CRYOPRESERVED HUMAN EMBRYOS. "In current state of the art, early embryos having undergone cryopreservation implant at the same rate as equivalent fresh counterparts. The outcome from using cryopreserved embryos has uniformly been positive with no increase in birth defects or development abnormalities." http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Embryo_cryopreservation View in LinkedIn

THE FIRST TERM PREGNANCY FROM A FROZEN EMBRYO "derived from a frozen embryo was born in 1984. Since then and up to 2008 it is estimated that between 350,000 and half a million IVF babies have been born from embryos frozen at a controlled rate and then stored in liquid nitrogen." http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Embryo_cryopreservation View in LinkedIn

ERADICATION OF GENETIC DISEASES. "In the future, an increasing number of people will prevent a range of genetic diseases by sidestepping the unions that create them — whether at the altar through “premarital genetic diagnosis” of genetic abnormalities, or in the petri dish through pre-implantation genetic diagnosis (PGD) of embryos created using in vitro fertilization." http://lnkd.in/da2UiFh View in LinkedIn

HUMAN EMBRYO CRYOPRESERVATION. "Embryo cryopreservation is ... a component of in vitro fertilization (which generally also includes ovarian hyperstimulation, egg retrieval and embryo transfer) ... a study of 23 countries that almost 42,000 frozen human embryo transfers were performed during 2001 in Europe." http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Embryo_cryopreservation View in LinkedIn

REFOCUS OF DISEASE PREVENTION. "Our attention has moved beyond preventing germ-borne disease at the macro level — such as last century’s crusades to eradicate diseases like smallpox or polio — to avoiding the genetic expression of disease at the micro level — the level of individual reproduction." http://lnkd.in/da2UiFh View in LinkedIn

"EMBRYO TRANSFER refers to a step in the process of assisted reproduction in which embryos are placed into the uterus of a female with the intent to establish a pregnancy. This technique (which is often used in connection with in vitro fertilization (IVF)), may be used in humans or in animals, in which situations the goals may vary." http://lnkd.in/d3Rrcey View in LinkedIn
