Following the successful Cryos Symposium in Orlando, FL, just before a pandemic closed down the world, the 2021 symposium will be taken to the next level.
Join us for a full-day scientific conference with a programme packed with international experts sharing the latest news and scientific research within the field of ART. The day will culminate in a lovely conference dinner full of networking opportunities. The day before the symposium, we are pleased to welcome you to our grand opening of Cryos International’s new sperm and egg bank in beautiful Nicosia.
