Ferring Research Infertility and Gynaecology GrAnt (FRIGGA) 2008 Winners Announced
Date:7/7/2008

oost for our research. We feel looking at gene expression in cumulus cells will help understand the mechanism behind different ovarian stimulation protocols and how they influence oocyte quality. It is an honour for the value of our research to be recognised." Dr Esther Baart.

Infertility

Infertility is generally defined as the inability to conceive naturally after one year of trying to become pregnant by unprotected intercourse. Infertility does not mean sterility, but it does signify a reduction in the chances of conceiving a child spontaneously. According to the World Health Organisation, between 60 and 80 million couples in the world are Infertile(1), and one in six couples have to seek help to conceive(2). The problem is found to lie with the male in nearly half of cases, although many attribute the rise of infertility to women opting to postpone motherhood until later in life, which often results in age-related infertility.
