Annual 2019 Conference of the Foundation for Reproductive Medicine (FRM)

Annual 2019 Conference of the Foundation for Reproductive Medicine (FRM): Translational Reproductive Biology and Clinical Reproductive Endocrinology is organized by CME Congresses and will be held from Nov 21 - 24, 2019 at New York Marriott East Side, New York City, New York, United States of America.

Who Should Attend:
This conference offers to clinicians, basic scientists and trainees in a single lecture hall over two-and-a-half days a comprehensive and very contemporary update on reproductive biology and reproductive clinical endocrinology/infertility. It also presents unique opportunities for interaction between basic scientists and clinicians, with the ultimate goal of the conference being to enhance the quick translation of new developments in reproductive biology to clinical practice in reproductive endocrinology/infertility.

Registrants from 42 countries again offered glowing evaluations for last year’s Foundation for Reproductive Medicine Conference (FRMC). As in preceding years, the 2019 conference will build on this experience, while outperforming earlier years by presenting an even more unique program, summarizing latest discoveries in reproductive biology and other related basic-science areas and their newest clinical applications in clinical reproductive endocrinology and infertility. And like no other conference in this field, and a very unique feature of FRMC, 2019-FRMC will also again present an authoritative “peek” into the future by listening to some of the leading experts who are in the process of creating this future, as they speak.

The ultimate goals of the FRMC remains to present newly arising paradigms in reproductive medicine before anybody else does and to stimulate and encourage attendees to think differently.

Description:
After careful preparation, and a commitment to “being different” from other medical conferences, the FRMC over the past few years, despite an ever-increasing density of conferences in reproductive medicine, has attained a very special reputation for avoiding “politically correctness” and the usual industry pressures in selecting topics and the invited speakers for their presentation.

FRMC will, as in previous years, offer CME credits. The final number of credits will only be available once the program is finalized but should be in the ±20-hour range.

Program Topics:
• The forgotten male in infertility practice
• Preimplantation genetic testing for aneuploidy (PGT-A)
• Early stages of embryo development and “artificial” embryos
• IVF risks

Program Objectives:
• Recognize state-of the-arts developments in reproductive biology and their translational potential for clinical practice in reproductive endocrinology and infertility.
• Identify paradigm changes in clinical reproductive medicine, driven by new discoveries in reproductive biology.
• Evaluate current popular infertility treatments in selected patient populations.
• Apply individualized infertility medicine based on age and functional ovarian reserve of female patients.
• Learn about progress in male infertility.
