Lab One
=Identify the origin of In Vitro Fertilization and the 2010 nobel prize winner associated with this technique.
In 1973 the Monash University team achieved In Vitro Fertilisation (IVF). However, it only lasted a few days. On 25 July 1978, the first IVF baby was born in the UK.
Robert Edwards was awarded the 2010 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine "for the development of in vitro fertilization"
=Identify a recent paper on fertilisation and describe its key findings.
Hansen et al. (2002). The Risk of Major Birth Defects after Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection and in Vitro Fertilization.
