Assisted Reproductive Technology (ART) has made significant strides in recent decades, expanding the possibilities for individuals and couples experiencing infertility or other reproductive challenges. While ART continues to offer hope to those facing infertility, there is a constant balance to be maintained between scientific progress and ethical considerations, including ensuring accessibility of treatments for all. Prof Dr Arthur Chang, Professor of OB/GYN from the University of Texas Health Science Centre, explores some of the cutting-edge innovations and advancements in ART that he specialises in, including research into artificial embryos, and the use of artificial intelligence (AI) in in-vitro fertilisation (IVF).
