title: A renaissance in reproductive endocrinology and infertility.
abstract: Assisted reproductive technology (ART) is catalyzing a renaissance in reproductive endocrinology and infertility (REI), manifested by the rapid growth of new technologies, such as intracytoplasmic sperm injection, oocyte cryopreservation, preimplantation genetic manipulation of embryos, and embryonic stem cell biology. Because of advances in ART, REI will be a vibrant and growing discipline, both in academic and independent practice settings, for many decades.
