\u201cPersonalized reproductive medicine and the application of\nassisted reproductive technology will continue to develop, and also become a strategic\nlink for clinical research and application. In turn, this can give birth to a\ngeneration of millennials who are ready to face the era of disruption,\u201d said Prof.\nDr. Tono Djuwantono, dr., Sp.OG (K),\nM.Kes, Professor from the Unpad Faculty of Medicine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Prof. Tono conveyed this in the Scientific Oration concerning\nthe Acceptance of the Professorship in Obstetrics and Gynecology at the Faculty\nof Medicine, Universitas Padjadjaran at Graha Sanusi, Hardjadinata Unpad, Jalan Dipati Ukur No. 35, Bandung, Monday (29\/4).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The scientific oration presented was titled “The Role\nof Fertility in Determining the Direction of Precision Medicine and Giving\nBirth to the Nation’s Leading Generation”.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Prof. Tono said, in the 4.0 industrial revolution, the field\nof medical science has to prove its adaptability in at least three sectors; big data, biotechnology, and\nmedical information and communication technology (medical ICT).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cInevitably, the medical field needs to anticipate the rapid\nadvancement of technology. The existing technology must be utilized as\noptimally as possible to produce appropriate or precise treatment procedures,\u201d said\nProf. Tono.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
According to him, the integration of assisted reproductive\ntechnology and the advancement of genetic science has the potential to become a\nstarting point for a disease-free world for everyone. This means that the\ntreatment for each patient will be very specific and specifically designed for\nthe patient concerned.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This specific method of diagnosis and treatment is called\npersonalized medicine, which will be a mode of diagnosis and therapy in the era\nto come.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In the field of genetics and birth defects, Prof. Tono\nexplained that the development of DNA sequence identification techniques has\nincreased researchers\u2019 ability to reveal the exact genetical causes of birth\ndefects.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
He said that these techniques can prevent the emergence of\ncongenital diseases in infants that might be conceived \u2013 both diseases derived\nfrom parents and mutations of genes that arise by themselves.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
On this occasion, Prof. Tono also explained that the rapid\ndevelopment in the field of genetics and molecular biology in the last few\ndecades made it possible to carry out embryonic manipulation. Since the success\nof Thomson et al. in developing human embryonic stem cells in a laboratory in\n1998, the potential of embryonic stem cells to be developed into medical\ntherapy for patients suffering from degenerative diseases in the future is\nbecoming increasingly evident.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Prof. Tono and his team conducted research on stem cells\nfrom umbilical cord blood. He explained that hematopoietic stem cells are seen\nas a potential therapy for currently incurable blood and immune system\ndisorders.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Some time ago, Prof. Tono and his team have also succeeded\nin developing a rapid cooling storage method for umbilical cord blood that is\nproven to be able to maintain the viability of the hematopoietic stem cells\ncontained in it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cThis is a contribution from assisted reproductive\ntechnology practitioners for the development of science which is expected to be\nimmediately implemented in the interest of health services for patients,\nespecially for the development of umbilical cord blood banks in the future,\u201d\nsaid Prof. Tono.*<\/p>\n\n\n\n
