480. From Future Experiments to the Future of Embryo Selection

The IVF Journey with Dr Michael Chapman

In this episode, Prof. Chapman reflects on how far IVF has come—from 10% pregnancy rates and invasive laparoscopic egg collection in the 1980s, to today’s advanced culture mediums, time-lapse incubators, and genetic testing of embryos. He explains the major lab-based improvements over the past five years and outlines what’s next, including non-invasive embryo screening and AI-driven selection techniques. Looking ahead, he shares both the promise and caution surrounding emerging technologies that aim to improve success rates without harming viable embryos.
