James Cook School of Medicine was the first to establish clinical embryology sub speciality n Oceania in 2005, at the Cook College of Embryologists aiming to provide thorough academic training, research experience, ethics and skills related to human preimplantation embryology and infertility. 

To strengthen the research culture in ART, the department has also started doctoral training in 2007. 

Approximately one in eight couples experience some form of infertility, making it one of the most common medical problems in their reproductive age. 

Though advancements have been made both in clinical and laboratory aspects of Assisted Reproductive Technology (ART), there still are grey areas that need further research to improve the quality of outcome. 

Further, the country needs competent clinical embryologists to provide quality treatment in an ethical manner. 

Hence the primary focus of the department is capacity building through academic programmes to produce competent human resources to take up employment in both clinical ART and research stream, thereby enhancing the visibility of this specialised area of science.

The Department of Clinical Embryology & Reproductive Medicine is one of the top centres in the Country for advanced training and research in the field of embryology. 

The clinical wing of the department treats approximately ten thousand infertile patients every year and offers all modern ART techniques including preimplantation genetic testing and fertility preservation in cancer-affected individuals.
