Lab 1

1) Identify the origin of In Vitro Fertilization and the 2010 nobel prize winner associated with this technique and add a correctly formatted link to the Nobel page.

- In 1953, the first intact fertilized egg was extracted by John Rock. This event was reported by the Australian Foxton School researchers to be only a transient biochemical pregnancy. The first pregnancy made possible by in vitro human fertilisation (IVF) was reported in 1973 by the Lancet from Monash University, however the pregnancy itself only lasted a small number of days. It was not until 1978 that the first child (Louise Brown) was born with the help of IVF. The process was carried out by Steptoe and Edward successfully the year before.

- In 2010, Robert Edwards, was awarded the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine.

2)Identify and add a PubMed reference link to a recent paper on fertilisation and describe its key findings (1-2 paragraphs).
