“While some progress has been made in improving what we know about the health of women and girls, so much more remains to be understood,” said Sheila Burke, co-chair of the study committee and senior policy advisor at Baker Donelson. "This report lays out a bold and transformative vision for women’s health,” said Victor Dzau president of the National Academy of Medicine. “To advance the health of the entire nation, it is imperative that federal support for women’s health research is not only bolstered now, but upheld in the years to come.”

🌟 Gameto has announced the world’s first live birth using Fertilo, a new technology that matures eggs outside the body. The birth, which took place at Clinica Santa Isabel in Lima, Peru, represents a significant advancement in fertility treatment by eliminating approximately 80% of hormone injections typically required in conventional IVF. The technology uses engineered ovarian support cells to recreate the natural egg maturation process in a laboratory setting, reducing treatment cycles from the traditional 10-14 days to just three days. 🤱 💬 “We are delighted to celebrate the world’s first live birth conceived using Fertilo. By overcoming the major challenges of conventional IVF, such as long treatment cycles, significant side effects, and the emotional and physical strain, Fertilo provides a potentially faster, safer, and more accessible solution for families. This milestone marks a turning point in reproductive health and highlights the first application of iPSC technology in IVF and the immense potential of our technology.” Dina Radenkovic Turner, CEO & co-founder of Gameto #femtech #womenshealth #womenshealthinnovation #health #healthcare #fertility #reproductivehealth #ivf #milestone #biotech #startup #scaleup #research #clinicalresearch #science

On December 9th, we took part in the 𝗧𝗲𝗰𝗵𝟰𝗘𝘃𝗮 conference in Lausanne, which had a strong focus on maternal health. Speakers like Antoniya Georgieva and Pascal Koenig described how technology can make pregnancies and deliveries safer around the world. And during the showcases, startups like Galena Innovations and Fetosense® by CareNX pitched their maternal health innovations. Thanks to the organizing team at Tech4Eva and their partners for a great event, and congratulations to the participating entrepreneurs!  👏🏼 ➡️ If you are working on an innovative Femtech solution, you, too, can apply to Tech4Eva's 6-month virtual accelerator program for 2025! ➡️ Applications can be submitted until February 15, 2025 at: https://www.tech4eva.ch/ #femtech #womenshealth #startups #innovation Lidia Zabala, Simone Theiss, Lan Zuo Gillet hormona, CareNX Innovations cc Diagnostics, Calico Biosystems, Babyndex, Herosupport SA, EndoCure Ltd., VivoSensMedical GmbH, Mamotest, DeepLook Medical, Harmonia Healthcare, Vital Start Health, Cosm Medical, Namida Lab, Inc., Sin Reglas, Galena Innovations

These approaches mirror the success seen in rheumatoid arthritis and the targeted approach in oncology, where understanding the molecular basis of diseases has led to breakthrough therapies. Pharma and diagnostic companies, and researchers are encouraged to explore these novel mechanisms of action, as endometriosis offers a significant unmet medical need and a substantial commercial opportunity. By investing in potential disease-modifying therapies for endometriosis, companies can lead the charge in transforming women’s health care, much like the advancements seen in rheumatoid arthritis and oncology.

What if endometriotic lesions could be removed with novel medicines instead of surgery? What if new imaging methods could replace laporoscopic surgery for the definitive diagnosis of endometriosis? What if biomarkers could diagnose endometriosis early? Did you know endometriosis affects over 10% of women during their reproductive years, significantly impacting their quality of life? Our new White Paper explores the critical need for non-hormonal treatment options for endometriosis and adenomyosis. Despite the high prevalence, new therapies are lacking, with current treatments being either hormonal or invasive, representing a high cost to patients and society. The Artemis Women's Health Foundation and Catenion  have created a comprehensive guide for startups, investors and pharma companies who want to change the status quo and bring innovative treatments to Endometriosis and Adenomyosis patients.
