A NEW LIGHT ON DIAGNOSING EMBRYO HEALTHOne of the greatest challenges for IVF clinics is identifying which embryos are suitable for transfer back into the patient’s uterus. Our current research uses advanced optical approaches to understand, for the first time how chromosome mosaicism in the early embryo impacts pregnancy success and child and adult health.SPEAKER:Dr Kylie Dunning, Hospital Research Foundation mid-career fellow, Robinson Research Institute, University of AdelaideDr Kylie Dunning is a chief investigator in the ARC Centre of Excellence for Nanoscale BioPhotonics at the University of Adelaide and leads a group who have a strong interest in utilising cutting edge optics to elucidate the mechanisms underpinning healthy oocyte and embryo development. Dr Kylie Dunning is motivated by creating a world where fewer couples struggle with infertility, an often invisible and stigmatised health challenge. Her research has been recognised through numerous prestigious awards including an ARC DECRA fellowship and the 2020 South Australian Tall Poppy of the Year Award.CHAIR:Professor Claire Roberts, HDA Co-Convenor: College of Medicine and Public Health, Flinders UniversityDr Kylie Dunning will be presented with the Healthy Development Adelaide Women’s Excellence in Research Award for 2020.
