Empowering Excellence in Embryology

Embryology Academy Of Research and Training (EART) are proud to announce medical conference "Empowering Excellence in Embryology” from September 14th to 18th, 2011 in India at Delhi,Chennai and Mumbai.

For the first time in India,Embryology Academy For Research & Training brings together wordwide Embryology experts,offerting rare learning opportunity from the best of the IVF Industry of the world.

EART and ALPHA[international forum for scientists in reproductive medicine] has come together for the Embryology workshop in India.The Embryology workshop is been jointly organized by ALPHA [UK] - Embryology Academy Of Research and Training (EART) - India.

The salient features of this IVF Fertility Infertility Conference, would be knowledge sharing, amending shortcomings, improvising application support, and other relevant issues. Every IVF ART lab Director’s and every Embryologist’s dream to reach the pinnacle of success can be brought to fruition by such meets which would help one and all seek professional expertise and knowledge far beyond the walls of their theoretically acquired awareness.

In India there is an unprecedented and unregulated growth of ART clinics, IVF Fertility clinics,Infertility clinics providing IVF procedures over the years within the frame work of medical tourism. IVF is the latest addition. Low cost, easy access and easy availability and economical prices of IVF drugs has fueled further growth.The estimated number of clinics in India is almost 500 and going up every day and with such high growth and potential in IVF segment has attracted close attention of the Government.

Empowering Excellence in Embryology from 14th to 18th September,2011 in India.
