Almost a decade ago, mouse studies proved the concept, and researchers are now pursuing two main strategies to translate IVG to humans: cytokine signaling and transcription factor overexpression. Each involves distinct tradeoffs in efficiency, safety, and scalability. We will examine where the science stands today and what the near future holds. The potential market starts with women for whom IVF egg retrieval is ineffective, but will eventually expand to include most IVF patients as IVG will be less invasive and cheaper over time. Regulators around the world are preparing for the arrival of IVG; nonhuman primate births will be the first milestone. After these safety studies, IVG will enter trials and become available at different rates around the world depending on each country's regulatory environment. ​Bio: Travis cofounded Ovelle after he and his wife had trouble conceiving their second child. As they navigated IVF clinics, Travis began questioning why so few alternatives to traditional IVF existed. This led him to discover in vitro gametogenesis—the process of creating eggs from ordinary cells—and to team with Merrick Pierson Smela, a scientist from Harvard's Church Lab whose research on inducing meiosis in stem cells laid the groundwork for Ovelle's technology. Previously, Travis spent over a decade on Wall Street as a Managing Director at Goldman Sachs and running a group at Balyasny. https://www.science.org/doi/10.1126/s... ══════════════════════════════════════ About The Foresight Institute The Foresight Institute is a research organization and non-profit that supports the beneficial development of high-impact technologies.
