US Fertility and Ovation Fertility will present 56 abstracts at the 2026 ASRM Scientific Congress & Expo in Baltimore, with research focused on embryo transfer outcomes, early pregnancy risk prediction, fertility preservation, and lab innovation. The group also says several physicians will receive awards and lead sessions at the Oct. 24-28 meeting.

Why it matters: - US Fertility is using ASRM’s biggest annual research meeting to showcase work that could influence fertility treatment, lab practices and pregnancy care. - The abstracts cover areas that can affect success rates, patient counseling and access to advanced reproductive medicine. - The conference runs Oct. 24-28 in Baltimore, placing the research in front of a national reproductive medicine audience.

What happened: - US Fertility and Ovation Fertility will present 56 abstracts at the American Society for Reproductive Medicine’s 2026 Scientific Congress & Expo. - The meeting is taking place in Baltimore, Maryland, under the theme “Discovery, Innovation & Advancement.” - The research spans embryo transfer outcomes, early pregnancy risk prediction, fertility preservation and embryology lab innovation. - Kate Devine, M.D., US Fertility’s Medical Director and Chief Research Officer, said the network is bringing “meaningful research” to the ASRM stage and aims to turn rigorous research into better patient care.

The details: - US Fertility’s Research Division is led by Kate Devine, who also practices as a reproductive endocrinologist at Shady Grove Fertility. - The research team includes Phillip Romanski, M.D.; Kerry Flannagan, Ph.D.; Cassandra Roeca, M.D.; Luis Hoyos, M.D.; Michael Homer, M.D.; Meike Uhler, M.D.; and Matthew “Tex” VerMilyea, Ph.D. - Several US Fertility physicians will receive awards for research and publications. - Emily Clark, M.D., will receive the 2026 F&S Reports New Investigator Award. - Jensen Reckhow, M.D., will receive an ASRM In-Training Award for Research. - Laura Zalles, M.D., will receive an ASRM In-Training Award for Research, the 2026 Early Pregnancy Special Interest Group Prize Paper and the Society for Reproductive Endocrinology and Infertility Prize Paper. - Allison Eubanks, M.D., will receive the 2026 SREI Fellow’s Young Investigator Research Award. - Jasmine Eliwa, M.D., will receive the 2026 Collab Fertility Environmental Fellows Award. - Eric A.
