PGDIS Congratulates our President, Nobel Prize Winner, Professor Robert Edwards

On behalf of PGDIS members, we are excited to extend our congratulations to Professor Robert Edwards for his receipt of the Nobel Prize.

Pioneering In Vitro Fertilization (IVF) not only revolutionized infertility care, but also made it possible to develop PGD, which allowed thousands of at risk couples to reproduce without fear of having offspring with genetic disease. It also allowed developing genetic approaches for pre-selection of embryos with higher developmental potential as a means for improving the effectiveness of assisted reproduction technologies.

We are so happy that the Nobel committee has chosen to recognize Professor Edwards formidable scientific work in Medicine.
