This is Scientific American’s 60-Second Science, I’m Steve Mirsky.Got a minute?


The 2010 Nobel Prize in Physiology 1 or Medicine goes to 85-year-old Robert Edwards of England, for the development of in vitro fertilization. The Karolinska Institute’s Christer Hoog:


“Robert Edwards, working in the United Kingdom, began his fundamental research on the biology of fertilization during the 1950s. He formulated 2 early a vision to develop an in vitro fertilization method to treat infertility 3. In this method, an egg will be taken out of a woman, fertilized 4 using sperm 5 in a cell culture dish, and then returned to the woman.”


The first so-called test-tube baby, Louise Brown, was born in England in 1978.


“Since 1978, an increasing number of children, now approximately four million, have been born thanks to IVF. To briefly 6 summarize the status of IVF today, 1 to 2 percent of all newborns in Europe, and America, and Australia and a number of countries, are conceived through IVF.”


Thanks for the minute, for Scientific American’s 60-Second Science. I’m Steve Mirsky.
