World-Renowned PGD Researcher Educates Physicians & Healthcare Professionals About Preventing Birth Defects & Infant Mortality At March of Dimes Conferenceย 

Wednesday, Jan. 19 โ€“9:45 AM- Long Beach Convention Center

WHAT:ย World-renowned fertility expert and leader in reproductive medicine Dr. Lawrence Werlin will be the featured speaker at the 5th Annual March of Dimes Conference. This yearโ€™s theme,ย โ€œPreventing Birth Defects & Infant Mortality โ€” Prematurity: Minimizing Risk & Maximizing Outcome,โ€ย will educate health care providers on the most common causes of perinatal mortality and birth defects.

Werlinโ€™s presentation, โ€œArtificial Reproduction Therapy: Risk of Birth Defects,โ€ will explore new developments in reproductive medicine that will aid healthcare providers in the prevention and early detection of birth defects including the use of preimplantation genetic diagnosis (PGD).

WHY:ย March of Dimes and the Community Perinatal Network have partnered to focus on these critical issues at this yearโ€™s conference due to the increasing problem of premature births in the United States, and the impact this trend is having on the overall health of children.

WHERE:ย Westin Hotel & Resort in Long Beach, 333 East Ocean Boulevard

WHEN:ย Wednesday, January 19โ€“ 9:45 a.m. โ€“ Conference Presentation

WHO:ย Dr. Werlin is the principal investigator and a world-renowned leader in the uses and study of PGD, and the co-founder of GENESIS Network for Reproductive Health. For his expertise, Werlin speaks globally as a noted authority, and was recently invited to participate as an expert consultant at the European Society of Human Reproduction and Embryology (ESHRE) conference in Berlin, Germany.

PGD is gaining national and international attention for what it offers. PGD screens and tests for abnormal chromosomes in the beginning stages of in-vitro fertilization, offering valuable information early on for prospective parents about success rates and likelihood for passing on genetic diseases.
