First Baby Born Through Fully Automated IVF Procedure Using AI and Robotics

The groundbreaking system, developed by Conceivable Life Sciences, automates all 23 steps of ICSI, marking a milestone in assisted reproduction technology.

• A healthy baby was born on April 9, 2025, following a fully automated intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) procedure, supervised remotely by medical professionals.
• The AI-driven system, developed by Conceivable Life Sciences, completes all 23 steps of the ICSI process, including sperm selection and microinjection, with minimal human intervention.
• The procedure involved fertilizing donor eggs using both automated and manual ICSI methods, with the automated system producing the embryo that led to the successful birth.
• Experts highlight the potential of automation to reduce human error and enhance precision in IVF, though larger clinical trials are needed to validate its efficacy and broader applicability.
• Future refinements aim to lower costs and improve accessibility, potentially transforming the landscape of fertility treatments worldwide.
