Embryolab Clinical & Scientific Director

Human fertility. A strong biological drive, a bless across cultures. From scientific breakthroughs to rising demographic concerns, human fertility is becoming the focus of intense research, across the globe.

As we unravel the secrets of human reproduction we are starting to realise how beautifully complex our bodies are.

With scientific progress providing answers and reliable solutions to long standing fertility related issues, we are now shifting our focus on public awareness, access to fertility care services and open discussions on novel ethical issues.

From case studies to scientific papers, and from fertility news to medical breakthroughs, my website aims to explore various aspects of human fertility, approach emerging complex issues and highlight controversies.

I am confident that rising awareness and communicating complexity is the key to understanding fertility, from its preservation to the wide range of available treatments.

It is a fascinating journey.

Stay on!
