    Health

    While studying my bachelors in biotechnology I volunteer one summer to work in the assisted reproduction laboratory at the Hospital Universitario de Canarias, Spain. During my voluntary work I learned several techniques including sperm capacitating, oozytes culture and denudation, embryonic quality valuation, embryo/sperm freezing and thawing techniques and embryo culture, assist follicular puncture, I.V.F, I.C.S.I and embryo transfer.
