In this podcast, we interview Sean Tipton, who is the chief advocacy policy and development officer for ASRM. We discuss Infertility Awareness Week and what it means for ASRM. Sean explains that, while the COVID pandemic has limited some of their activities, ASRM works all year round to raise awareness of infertility and the needs of their members and patients through social media, patient education materials, and media work, both reactive and proactive. We also discuss ReproductiveFacts.org, which provides patient-facing information on infertility, as well as the importance of interacting with the government, as ASRM plays a key role in helping to shape policies that affect the field of reproductive medicine.
