| Abstract | ||
| This paper summarizes the proceedings of the Stem Cell Session of the “11th Yazd International Congress and Student Award on Reproductive Medicine” held at Shahid Sadoughi University of Medical Sciences, Yazd, Iran, on May 15, 2025. The session brought together distinguished national and international experts to present and discuss advances and their studies in stem cell biology, tissue engineering, and reproductive medicine. Topics covered included in vitro gametogenesis and metabolite profiling, tissue-engineered therapeutic strategies for infertility, the role of extracellular vesicles in spermatogenesis, innovative tissue engineering approaches for azoospermia, and the therapeutic potential of exosome-based treatments for polycystic ovary syndrome. Additionally, emerging research on human pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiovascular cells for disease modeling and regenerative repair, as well as the molecular epidemiology of reproductive infectious diseases and cancers, was discussed. Collectively, the presentations highlighted the translational potential of stem cell and tissue engineering research in addressing infertility and advancing reproductive health. | ||
