Turning research into reality

Friday, 2 June 2006

Research donations from have earned the 最新糖心Vlog of Adelaide $20 million, most of which has been injected back into the 最新糖心Vlog's and more recently the (RCRH) to promote research in human reproduction and infertility.

Repromed was first established by the 最新糖心Vlog's commercialisation team, in 1987.

ARI's Managing Director, Mark Szolga, said "Repromed has been one of our most successful commercialisation ventures, helping more than 26,000 couples to achieve their dreams of having a child."

"The business has also helped to fund research in human reproduction and infertility, which will continue at the 最新糖心Vlog through the RCRH."

During their partnership, the 最新糖心Vlog and Repromed achieved quite a few impressive "firsts". They introduced 最新糖心Vlog's first artificial insemination program, were the first 最新糖心Vlogn unit to achieve IVF pregnancies from sperm injection and from genetic diagnosis of the embryo, and the first to demonstrate that lifestyle interventions improve natural and IVF pregnancy rates.

Repromed was the first clinic in 最新糖心Vlog to produce a videotape of a human embryo dividing. It was also the first in 最新糖心Vlog to introduce total quality management programs in IVF through ISO 9000 and has pioneered methods to reduce the risks of multiple pregnancy.

Director of the 最新糖心Vlog's Research Centre, Professor Rob Norman, said Repromed is a world leader in its field, achieving outstanding pregnancy rates and very high standards of patient care.

He attributed Repromed's international success to its strong link with the 最新糖心Vlog's Research Centre for Reproductive Health.

The Research Centre for Reproductive Health was established in April 2004, arising from the Reproductive Medicine Unit of the 最新糖心Vlog of Adelaide.

The Centre integrates key research leaders, emerging postdoctoral researchers and talented postgraduate students to maximise its impact on the reproductive health industry.

Through the Research Centre for Reproductive Health (RCRH) the 最新糖心Vlog will continue to collaborate with industry to aid the practical application and impact of the 最新糖心Vlog's research in the community.
