The next presentations in our 2015 Oncofertility Conference series discuss the Medical and Ethical Considerations in Ovarian Stimulation of Adolescents. Dr. Irene Su, MD, MSCE presentation focused on the medical considerations and Dr. Lisa Campo-Engelstein, PhD, discussed the ethical considerations.
Dr. Su is an Associate Professor of Reproductive Medicine in the Division of Reproductive Endocrinology and Infertility at the University of California, San Diego, where she directs the Fertility Preservation Program. Her current research focuses on estimating the reproductive window in female young adult cancer survivors. As well, she is testing a web-based intervention on sequelae of premature ovarian aging in young breast cancer survivors. She actively collaborates with the young adult cancer survivor community to conduct this research.
Lisa Campo-Engelstein, PhD, is an Assistant Professor at the Alden March Bioethics Institute and Department of Obstetrics & Gynecology at Albany Medical College in Albany, New York.
