It is with great enthusiasm and a deep sense of commitment to scientific advancement that I welcome you to the First International Symposium on Advanced Reproductive Technology and Extracellular Vesicle Sciences (ARTEV 2025). This pioneering event, scheduled for 23-25 October 2025, marks a significant milestone in the integration of cutting-edge reproductive technologies and extracellular vesicle research, shaping the future of fertility and reproductive medicine.
The intersection of assisted reproductive technologies (ART) and extracellular vesicle (EV) sciences opens new frontiers in fertility preservation, embryo development, maternal-fetal communication, and regenerative medicine. By bringing together distinguished researchers, clinicians, embryologists, and biotech innovators, ARTEV 2025 aims to foster interdisciplinary collaboration, driving the next generation of breakthroughs in reproductive health.
Beyond scientific and technological advancements, this conference carries a special focus on the future of fertility in Sarawak, addressing the challenges of declining birth rates and the need for sustainable population growth. As a land known for its rich cultural heritage and harmonious diversity, it is vital to ensure that Sarawak's unique plurality and identity are preserved for generations to come. By advancing reproductive medicine and accessibility to fertility care, we hope to contribute to a future where families can thrive, and our communities continue to flourish.
This conference is a testament to our shared vision of translating scientific discoveries into real-world clinical applications. With an outstanding line-up of keynote speakers and an unprecedented number of high-quality research presentations, ARTEV 2025 provides an invaluable platform for networking, knowledge exchange, and ground-breaking discussions.
I extend my sincere appreciation to the organizing committee, esteemed speakers, and all participants for their contributions. May this conference inspire innovation, facilitate new collaborations, and pave the way for transformative solutions in reproductive technology and extracellular vesicle sciences, not just for the world, but for the future of Sarawak.
Wishing you all a productive and insightful conference.

I welcome you to the International Symposium on Advanced Reproductive Technology and Extracellular Vesicle Sciences (ARTEV 2025) that is held in the land of hornbill for the very first time. This conference is inspired by research projects funded by the European Commission on volatolomic studies in Assisted Reproductive Technology (ART) and Extracellular Vesicles (EVs). With the concerning decline in both human and animal reproduction, and the untapped potential of EVs in medical applications, these two fields represent groundbreaking areas of research with immense clinical and scientific significance.
This conference serves as a vital platform, uniting experts, researchers, and practitioners from diverse fields to bridge critical knowledge gaps in these two areas. It aims to explore the latest advancements, showcase pioneering research, and foster collaborations that drive innovation in reproductive medicine and cellular communication. Through insightful keynote sessions, cutting-edge presentations, and interactive discussions, we seek to unlock the full potential of ART and EVs in shaping the future of medical science.
I extend my deepest gratitude to our distinguished speakers, dedicated scientific committee, sponsors, and all participants for contributing to the success of this event. Your presence and engagement are what make this conference an enriching and transformative experience.
We look forward to thought-provoking discussions, meaningful networking, and groundbreaking discoveries that will advance both scientific knowledge and clinical applications in ART and EV research.
Thank you for joining us, and I wish you a fruitful and inspiring conference.
