Lab 1 Assessment

  1. Identify the origin of In Vitro Fertilization and the 2010 nobel prize winner associated with this technique.
    John Rock, an American obstetrician and gynecologist, was a pioneer in in vitro fertilization and sperm freezing. He helped many of his patients achieve pregnancy and became known as a "ground-breaking infertility specialist." In 1977, Patrick Steptoe and Robert Edwards successfully carried out a pioneering conception which resulted in the birth of the world's first baby to be conceived by IVF.
    Robert G. Edwards was awarded the 2010 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine.
  2. Identify a recent paper on fertilisation and describe its key findings.
    | Correlation of body mass index with outcome of in vitro fertilization in a developing country.
    To correlate ovarian response to stimulation and IVF outcome according to the women's body mass index (BMI). The conclusion came to an increased BMI is associated with poorer IVF outcome.
  3. Identify 2 congenital anomalies.
    • Down syndrome
    • Turner syndrome
