15 congresses · 9 host countries · since 1996
Bringing together clinicians and scientists across the Pacific Rim to exchange ideas, present research, and advance the field of reproductive endocrinology and infertility.
PSRM aims to offer a platform for medical professionals worldwide to exchange ideas, experiences, recent research findings and state-of-the-art technologies in the field of fertility treatment — especially on its safety issues, ways of improving success rates, and the potential use of stem cells.
We provide our members with the most up-to-date knowledge in reproductive medicine and help to advance the levels of clinical practice, as well as basic research.
Through our biennial conferences, we invite renowned researchers in the Pacific Rim region and other continents to share their insights and expertise via lectures on the basic and clinical aspects of the field:
Back in 1995, Professor Kwang-Yul Cha and I shared a dream for a forum in Asia to bring together medical professionals and researchers from this region of the world to exchange ideas, present their latest research findings, and share their expertise in the field of Reproductive Endocrinology and Infertility. Thus, the foundation of our Society was laid, and the Pacific Rim Society for Fertility and Sterility was born. With a name change in 2013, it is now known as the Pacific Society for Reproductive Medicine (PSRM).
Our vision was shortly realized with the first meeting of the Society held on the Big Island of Hawaii in March 1996. I chose this location for a number of reasons. First, Hawaii is known as a melting pot for people who can trace their ancestral roots back to Asia. Second, the meeting should be in a neutral location, not to play favoritism toward any country wanting to host this inaugural event. Finally, there is no better place to have a meeting than Hawaii with its mild tropical climate and friendly people — the perfect setting for both learning and relaxing at the same time.
The first meeting was structured as a post-graduate course with distinguished speakers primarily from the United States. There were no abstracts and no free communications. I realized afterwards we must commit our future meetings to include more of these sessions to help foster and nurture young Asian investigators, so they can be recognized and given the credit for their hard work they so well deserve. Now, as I reflect back over the past 20 years, I am proud that our dream of an Asian Reproductive Society is now a reality.
