Los Angeles, July 06, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Ovation® Fertility scientists were invited to present five pieces of research at the ESHRE virtual 37th Annual Meeting. The event, hosted by the European Society of Human Reproduction and Embryology, took place online June 26-July 1, 2021.
“The Ovation scientific team always looks forward to traveling to present at ESHRE, but the virtual format of the last two meetings has provided a valuable forum to continue the advancement of IVF research in unprecedented times,” says Ovation Vice President of Scientific Advancement Matthew “Tex” VerMilyea, PhD, HCLD/CC, who is one of this year’s ESHRE presenters. “The sessions and programme are still top-class, with plenty to see, listen to and learn. We were honored to contribute to the body of new discoveries shared at ESHRE 2021, and we look forward to once again meeting in-person with our worldwide colleagues and peers at next year’s meeting in Milan.”
