Description
Assisted Reproduction is the set of medical techniques and treatments aimed at promoting the pregnancy in the case of fertility problems in men, women, or in both genders. However, it is also of great help in specific situations that would not imply an infertility problem, as would be the case of women facing maternity on an individual basis, couples of homosexual women or couples carrying a disease that could be transmitted to the offspring.

Skills
Learning outcomes expected to be acquired by the student at the end of the course:
1. To apply genetics knowledge in reproductive medicine.
2. To identify the main bioethical aspects that must be considered in the application of assisted reproduction treatments, as well as their moral implications, according to Spanish legislation derived from human reproduction.
3. To apply Spanish legislation in cases of preimplantation testing and fertility preservation.
4. To recognize the organization and procedures of a reproduction clinic.
5. To identify a correct fertilization.
