2017 ESHRE in Geneva !!!
10/22/2017 08:28:00 PM
(No one can read tags, because it was written in French, lol. Don't worry, we still have our google.)
(I tried the yogurt in coffee taste, and I am sure that it was not my type.)
We had four days in ESHRE, including one day of pre-congress course. I took the part of genetics in reproduction, focusing on the talks related with DNAs, gene expression, PGS, and mitochondria ... etc. My own oral and poster topics were in PGS: one was the correlationship between the mosaicism and individual chromosome lengths; and another one was the effect of male factors in embryo ploidies. We took a photo in front of our e-poster, and I really appreciate our design group, since the poster looked very nice!
The oral presentation made me anxious for couple of weeks. I definitely got teary when I received the acceptance, though I felt both headache and stomachache before my session. I decided not to think about the people sat under the stage, and looked one of my colleague stood beside the entrance. It was good that I have finished everything now!
(We just pretended that we were the college students. Maybe ph.D student? :D)
(Nice weather and pretty view relived my heart.)
(Kids were happy everywhere.)
(Full-view)
We did not cook for the last night, and decided to eat the "real" Siwss food. We choose the restaurant named "Les Armures," and ordered the pink wine for celebration! The location was close to the University of Geneva.
Stork Fertility Center in Taiwan Chamber of Commerce in Canada
5/14/2017 06:45:00 PM
During May 1st to 3rd in 2017, Taiwan Chamber of Commerce in Canada (TCCCA) hold "2017 Taiwan Medical Services Orientation" in couple of places in Canada, introducing more facets of Taiwan medical techniques to the local expatriates whose original language are Chinese. The Taiwanese representatives were from aesthetic or cosmetic medical center, dental department, health evaluation center, ophthalmology department, and fertility center. Stork Fertility Center was the only delegate of infertility, showing the patient-friendly program design, advanced assisted reproductive techniques and competitive prices to the people in Toronto, Montreal, and Vancouver.
Raymond Chen, the project manager of the overseas service department at Stork Fertility Center, displayed "four clouds in IVF" to the audiences,
1st Cloud: Oocyte and Sperm Bank:
-- The leading bank in Asia, which covers all the blood type:A/B/O/AB
-- Approximately 70% of pregnancy rate
-- Sufficient oocyte/sperm supply and top oocyte/sperm quality

2nd Cloud: International Medical Services:
-- Personal consultant
-- Agency services for the official required documents
-- Transportation and Hospitality
-- Instant Interpretation
3rd Cloud: Reproductive genetic exams
-- Preimplantation genetic screening (PGS)
-- Preimplantation genetic diagnosis (PGD)

-- Carrier genetic test (CGT)
-- Endometrial receptivity assay (ERA)
4th Cloud: Social oocyte freezing
-- Individualized COS treatment
-- Contract protection
-- Fertility insurance
We are walking out of Taiwan to find whom needs us.
International medical service provides more convenience to the patients
11/21/2016 11:15:00 PM
To have better medical
service than home country, medical tourism has become a more popular word. For
example, Asian patients with cancer or cardiovascular diseases would go to Japan
or other developed countries for the advanced treatments. In the realm of
reproductive medicine, the condition for patients who need donated oocytes is different.
Since the law restricted the oocyte donation in Japan, patients must find a
solution overseas.
The assisted reproductive technology
has been developed around one decade in Taiwan. In 2007, the oocyte donation was
allowed in Taiwan by the authority decree, and the oocyte cryopreservation for
social reason as well. For patients with authorized marriage certificate, they
can take the oocyte-donation program if the
wife's ovarian reserve displayed significant diminished, because taking more
IVF cycles seems inefficient.

Introduction
Reducing the frequency of injections in an in vitro fertilization (IVF) program is a patient-friendly way to decrease the mental stress and financial burden in infertile couples. The release of corifollitropin alfa simplifies daily injections of short-acting recombinant follicular stimulating hormone (rFSH), and its widely-used protocol involves short-acting gonadotropins supplements and a fixed GnRH antagonist regimen, largely based on follicle size. In this study, the feasibility of corifollitropin alfa without routine pituitary suppression was evaluated, and it may further simplify the injection protocol.
Career first, children later: Taiwan women put their eggs on ice
8/29/2013 12:30:00 AMHSINCHU, Taiwan | Tue Aug 27, 2013 10:44am IST
(Reuters) - Caught between traditional expectations and career pressures, working women in Taiwan are increasingly opting to freeze their eggs at fertility clinics as they postpone marriage and motherhood.
Women play a big part in Taiwan 's
workforce, trailing only New Zealand
and Australia for female
employment among 14 countries in Asia , a
recent report by MasterCard showed.
