Emma is an embryologist and the lab manager at The Evewell fertility clinic in Harley street and previously spent 13 years at the lister fertility clinic in London.
Emma specialises in pre-implantation genetic testing of embryos and she has a passion for preventing the transmission of inherited genetic disease and enhancing the capabilities of embryo selection.
Emma believes IVF patients should have the opportunity to understand what goes on in an IVF laboratory. Her goal is to help patients alleviate some of the stress and anxiety caused by so many unknowns by championing education and awareness around IVF and embryology.
In this episode we discuss: egg quality (obviously!), PGT-A testing, what happens to your embryos in an IVF cycle and much more!
