How IVF embryos are actually made with Stanford’s Director Barry Behr Ph.D
Today our guest is Barry Behr, Ph.D., H.C.L.D., Professor of Obstetrics and Gynecology (Reproductive Endocrinology and Infertility), Emeritus. Barry takes us behind the curtain, walking us through the process of IVF, including how eggs are retrieved from ovaries, how they’re fertilized with sperm, and how genetic testing is performed with the resulting blastocyst. He shares insights into the big advancements in IVF that have made the process so reliable, and what excites him about the future of IVF. Orchid is proud to support the critical fertility care that Dr. Behr and hundreds of others provide every single day.
