Marlee Tepper: A Milestone in Ovarian Tissue Cryobanking
Marlee Tepper, Summer Student at University Health Network, shared a post by Mount Sinai Hospital (Toronto), Sinai Health on LinkedIn about a paper by Jennia Michaeli et al. published in CMAJ:
“I’m so incredibly inspired by this milestone from Mount Sinai Fertility.
The publication in CMAJ of Canada’s first ovarian tissue transportation and centralized cryobanking case is a major advancement for reproductive medicine, and a reflection of the innovative work led by Dr. Jennia Michaeli and the Mount Sinai Fertility team.
Expanding access to fertility preservation for young oncology patients is exactly the kind of impact driven, patient centred science that moves the field forward. And honestly, this is the kind of work I aspire to be part of, bridging research, clinical innovation, and real world change in reproductive and women’s health.
Brilliant science. Meaningful progress.
And a reminder of why this field inspires me every single day.
I urge you to take a look at this jaw dropping article, this is the future of reproductive medicine.”
Quoting Mount Sinai Hospital (Toronto), Sinai Health’s post:
“A major milestone for fertility care in Canada – the Canadian Medical Association Journal (CMAJ) has published work from our Mount Sinai Fertility team, a national leader in Fertility Preservation, showcasing the country’s first case of ovarian tissue transportation and centralized cryobanking.
This new model of care expands access to fertility preservation for young oncology patients seeking future parenthood, regardless of geographic location.
Dr. Jennia Michaeli, Reproductive Endocrinology and Fertility specialist, clinician-investigator at Mount Sinai Fertility, and Assistant Professor in the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology at the University of Toronto, leads the ovarian tissue cryopreservation and cancer survivorship programs. Her work brings innovation in research and clinical practice to improve outcomes for patients facing fertility-threatening treatments.
This is life-changing care in action – innovation that reaches more patients and strengthens outcomes across the system.
