On June 15^th, 2021, the Zhejiang Science and Technology Award Conference was held in the Zhejiang Provincial Great Hall of the People. SRRSH’s six disciplinary innovation achievements won Zhejiang Science and Technology Award. This award represents one of the highest honors in the field of science and technology in Zhejiang Province.

The "Serial Technical Research and Application for Improving the Efficiency of Assisted Reproductive Treatment and Improving Birth Outcome" completed by the team led by Professor Zhang Songying won the first prize of the 2020 Zhejiang Science and Technology Progress Award.

The aging of our country’s population is becoming more and more serious, and the birth rate is falling off a cliff. The incidence of infertility is increasing year by year. This seriously threatens the people’s reproductive health and influences family happiness, and even affects social stability and the country’s sustainable development. Professor Zhang Songying’s team conducted scientific and technological research on how to improve the success rate of assisted reproductive technology treatment and improve the outcome of birth.

The team combines assisted reproduction and minimally invasive reproduction seamlessly, and builds the SRRSH Reproductive Center into a center with unique advantages, being the first in the province and leading in the country. The breakthrough of a series of core technologies has greatly improved the efficiency of assisted reproductive treatment, effectively improved the outcome of neonatal birth, and innovated the treatment concept of gynecological surgery. Since the new technology was developed, it has been promoted and applied in more than 100 well-known hospitals across the country, benefiting more than 200,000 Patients, making an important contribution to the standardized treatment of minimally invasive reproduction in China. The team has published more than 80 high-level papers in international authoritative journals, edited or co-authored 8 Chinese expert consensus, and obtained 2 national invention patents.
