Who were the pioneers of the IVF (in-vitro fertilisation) therapy?
Correct Answer: Sir Robert Edwards and Patrick Steptoe
Sir Robert Edwards and Patrick Steptoe pioneered in-vitro fertilisation (IVF), leading to the birth of the world's first "test-tube baby", Louise Brown, in 1978 in Oldham, Greater Manchester.
Edwards, a physiologist, and Steptoe, a gynaecologist, spent over a decade perfecting the technique. Edwards was awarded the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine in 2010 for this groundbreaking work.
