The Ovarian Club IX Meeting will discuss cutting-edge topics related to oocyte development, the embryo-development process, blastocyst formation, the implantation process, and the energy derived for these processes.

On behalf of the organizing committee, we invite you to propose new topics and recommend speakers who are leading experts on the following suggested topics:

• The primordial follicle: Basic biology
• Harvesting and harnessing human ovarian stem cells
• Understanding AMH and the implications of ovarian reserve in the domain of fertility: The basic science section
• Pathways influencing the growth of dormant follicles
• Creating oocytes
• Cumulus cells: Diagnostics and therapeutics
• Oocyte and embryo quality
• Recruitment, follicular development and oocyte competence
• Environmental influence on oocytes and embryos
• Oocytes and embryos: Clinical relevance
• Biomarkers: Clinical relevance
• The clinical implications of ICSI failure
• Metabolic programming during the preconception stage and implications for subsequent fetal, neo-natal and adult health
• The fertilization process
• Aging: Ovarian reserve in fertility: The clinical section
• New insights into an old problem (PCOS) * Blastocentesis: A new approach to test embryo health and viability
• Blastocyst formation and preservation
• The genetics involved in blastocyst development
• An all-blastocyst approach in ART
• Ovarian stimulation, follicular development and the effects on pregnancy
• Cross-communication between the blastocyst and the endometrium
• Adding energy to the oocyte for better fertilization rates
• Metabolic requirements for oocyte and embryo development
• The energy surrounding successful implantation
