Reproductive medicine is one of today's most exciting scientific and clinical areas. Every month brings announcements of research developments, medical 'firsts', new rulings by regulatory bodies, or ethical controversies - often sparking a heated debate among practitioners in the field, ethicists, legislators, the media and the public.
Bona fide journalists, in possession of a recognized press card or a commissioning letter on headed paper from the publication they are working for, may register for free. Journalists are required to observe embargoes as indicated either by ESHRE staff or by the date/time of the presented session. All sessions are open to the media. The official language of the course is English.
