The collaboration between the New Materials group at CINTECX, Uvigo, and IVI-Vigo has resulted in a groundbreaking study presented at the recent 34th Congress of the Spanish Fertility Society, held on 24 May in A Coruña.

Jesús Aguilar, director of the In Vitro Fertilisation (IVF) laboratory at IVI-Vigo, shared the results of this study, which focused on the stimulation of sperm motility and its possible DNA fragmentation through the application of 633 nm laser radiation. The findings revealed a significant increase in the motility of sluggish and inactive sperm, with no evidence of DNA damage.

This breakthrough represents an important milestone in the field of fertility and assisted reproduction, paving the way for the possible application of laser radiation in future treatments.
The collaboration between the FA3 Group of UVigo and IVI-Vigo demonstrates the power of teamwork and synergy between institutions to promote research and innovation in the medical field.

Congratulations to Jesús Aguilar for his outstanding studies and successful presentation at the congress!
