#Message from the Director
Clinical Embryology is a multifaceted and complex scientific field that has noted leaps of progress in recent years. Conception of the “Advanced Clinical Embryology Course” was fueled by the aspiration to create an innovative specialized study program entailing a thorough and comprehensive curriculum advancing our understanding and knowledge in Clinical Embryology, from setting-up and organizing the Assisted Reproduction Unit, Standard Operating Procedures, to novel approaches and understanding how to evaluate published data.
When designing the ACE Course, our aim was to ascertain a state-of-the-art program presenting high-impact international instructors, and speakers that serve as global leaders in the field, and this is what this course offers. This is of essence especially because clinical embryology is characterized by a high level of specialization and there is an enthusiastic constant influx of new technologies and approaches in the embryology and andrology laboratory.
Whether you are a trained Embryologist with years of experience or a trainee just starting practicing, or aspiring to become a clinical embryologist and already hold a postgraduate Diploma in a relevant field, this specialized training program will provide you with insight in clinical embryology from A to Z. Those who decide to enroll, will have the opportunity to enrich and upgrade their knowledge and skills in an innovative educational context, promoting an interactive approach, the exchange of views, ideas, and concerns, all while aiming to strengthen the participants’ critical thinking.
Please navigate the website to collect all the information required regarding the program’s structure, the speakers, the goals, including how to apply and prerequisites. Should you have any questions, our coordinators will be happy to answer. We look forward to welcoming you on board and helping you reach your goals and career aspirations by enrolling at the “Advanced Clinical Embryology Course”.
