Webinar(s) Programme Outline & Registration
AI Forum – Machine Learning and Microfluidics for Fertility
Organised by ASPIRE Artificial Intelligence SIG
This session introduces cutting-edge research at the intersection of microfluidics, high-resolution microscopy, and machine learning to advance reproductive science. It highlights AI-driven opportunities for automating gamete analysis and developing non-invasive technologies for sperm selection and activation. The work also underscores a paradigm shift by revealing the critical yet long-overlooked role of natural mechanical stimulation in regulating reproductive cell behavior and biochemical activity.
Date and Time: Thursday, 9 October 2025 at 5pm – 6pm GMT+8

Embryo grading is central to IVF practice, shaping key clinical decisions. While the Istanbul Consensus (2011, revised 2024) provides the global standard for morphological assessment, new evidence on blastocyst morphology, the limits of manual evaluation, and advances in AI and non-invasive metabolomics highlight the need for further updates to current grading guidelines.
