and received his subspecialty certification in Reproductive Endocrinology
in 1981. He is a noted world authority on reproductive endocrinology
and infertility and one of the founding pioneers in the assisted

Throughout his career, Dr. Rosenwaks has been instrumental
in developing new fertility-enhancing protocols and the study
of advanced recombinant-derived gonadotropins to assist in producing
mature, high quality sperm and eggs. The development of a highly
successful egg donation program at New York Weill Cornell has
made it possible to achieve pregnancies in women who have premature
ovarian failure. Egg donation, first developed in the United
States by Dr. Rosenwaks, has also made it possible to answer
many key questions about human reproduction.
At New York Weill Cornell's The Center for Reproductive Medicine
and Infertility, patients may avail themselves of a myriad of
reproductive options ranging from in vitro fertilization (IVF),
intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI), preimplantation genetic
testing, ovulation induction and intrauterine insemination (IUI),
to participation in one of the most successful egg donation
programs in the country. The center provides a full spectrum
of state-of-the-art medical and surgical treatment in reproductive
endocrinology and gynecology including laser surgery, tubal
reconstruction, laparoscopy and pediatric gynecology, as well
as correction of disorders of sexual development and in-house
psychological counseling. Close collaboration with New York
Weill Cornell's Male Center for Reproductive Medicine and Microsurgery,
makes Dr. Rosenwaks' program unique for its treatment of male
and female reproductive problems.
Dr. Rosenwaks and his world-class team of reproductive endocrinologists,
embryologists, andrologists and infertility specialists have
helped more couples have babies through assisted reproduction
than any other center in the country and they have consistently
achieved among the highest success rates in the world. Dr. Rosenwaks
has had quite a prolific career -- he has authored over 300
scientific papers, 58 book chapter and 6 textbooks, the latest
