Course description including main topics
This course is organised by the Paramedical Board and SIG Embryology for laboratory technicians, embryologists and other clinic personnel who wish to improve their knowledge of ART. The course will be divided into four sessions over three days and will provide very useful information for lab technicians and embryologists working towards accredited ESHRE certification. Subjects covered will include basic biology, quality control of media, gamete failure, and basic statistics. Participants will also have the opportunity to question expert speakers in a Q&A session. A workshop session will provide small-group hands-on experience in time-lapse, cryopreservation and quality control. This course will also offer excellent networking opportunities with colleagues from across Europe and to exchange information and experiences.
