ABSTRACT
Innovation in medically assisted reproduction (MAR) is at an all-time high, with new technologies being developed for the laboratory and around the patient experience, and deployed quickly and effectively. Nevertheless, substantial improvements in the success of infertility care seem to elude the field. This article presents the view that MAR is missing the key innovation motor of mechanistic knowledge, which historically relates to a lack of public resources of the kind afforded to other diseases. It is posited that unless and until we raise infertility at the level of an urgent unmet medical need in the eyes of government and national funding body, innovation will be limited in scope and impact, and be incremental in nature.
