💙 Tomorrow, 27 September, will mark the 100th anniversary of the birth of Robert Edwards, the pioneering scientist behind the development of IVF.
His groundbreaking work opened the door to parenthood for millions of people worldwide who faced infertility, forever changing what was possible for many across the globe.
For us as fertility patients, Robert Edwards holds a special place in our hearts. Even though most of us never knew him personally, we feel deeply connected to his legacy, because his vision, perseverance, and compassion gave us hope, choice, and the chance to experience the joy of parenthood.
On this centennial, we honour not only his Nobel Prize-winning achievement but also the countless lives touched and transformed by his work. His legacy lives on in every child born through IVF, and in the love and resilience of families everywhere.
