The ceremony attracted nearly 200 fertility specialists, clinicians and leading fertility technicians in Vietnam. The event was held solemnly and meaningfully with two main parts: a scientific conference with 04 in-depth reports on assisted reproductive technology and a meeting to celebrate the 55th anniversary of the traditional day of the Military Institute of Clinical Embryology & Embryology. celebrate 21 years of the first baby born by in vitro fertilization.
