2025 CRB Symposium Luncheon Roundtables

In addition to the impressive lineup of 2025 CRB Symposium speakers, the luncheon scientific roundtable lineup also offer attendees an opportunity to listen, learn, interact, and reflect with esteemed presenters on timely and pertinent issues affecting modern clinical reproductive laboratories. Automation and AI in the laboratory, efficacies of PGT-A and other add-ons, enhancement of patient experiences and outcomes, new methodologies in cryoinventory management, tissue banking nightmares, as well as enhancing your laboratory leadership skillset are just a few of the topics being discussed over lunch on Wednesday, April 30. Every CRB symposium attendee is sure to find something relevant to their daily laboratory practice. The only problem is, how can you choose just one? Sign up for a roundtable when you register for the symposium to get even more out of your 2025 CRB experience!
