During the 33rd annual convention of the European Embryo Technologies Association (AETE), Prof. Cesare Galli, founder and director of Avantea in Cremona, was honored with the prestigious AETE Pioneer Award. The AETE Pioneer Award is one of the most important scientific recognitions in the field of assisted animal reproduction.
This award recognises the important contributions Prof. Galli has made since the beginning of his thirty-year long career: first in Cambridge (UK) and then at the Laboratory of Reproduction Technologies (LTR) in Cremona now Avantea.
The AETE conference was held in Bath, UK, on the 8th and 9th September 2017. The award ceremony was preceded by a lectio magistralis by Prof. Galli entitled “Achievements and unmet promises of assisted reproduction technologies in farm animals: a personal perspective”. The conference gathered more than 200 delegates from all over Europe.
The aim of AETE is to facilitate the diffusion and application of embryo technologies in mammals by creating a forum for the exchange of scientific, technical and practical knowledge at a European level and by organizing regular meetings that encourage the participation of scientists, professionals, technicians and students.
