RESEARCH WORK

Dr. Fraidakis has a significant research work, formatting advanced methods of daily clinical practice.

His research activity is a result of his clinical experience. Moreover, the processing of Crete Fertility Centre’s statistical data has led to the formation of studies, some of which have been published, while others are either in publicatio mode or in completion mode.

He has published many innovative surveys in well known international scientific magazines and conferences which contribute in the improvement of pharmaceutical protocols and the precaution of severe complications such as the ovarian rejuvenation in In Vitro Fertilisation – IVF.

Dr Fraidakis’ knowledge and experience have a significant positive impact in consulting couples with infertility problems, resulting in the birth of healthy children.

His research and clinical work is extended with collaborations with national and international institutes and universities in the field of research -clinical protocols. The collaboration with University of Aarhus, Denmark and, specifically, with Prof. Claus Yding Andersen, has results of great importance for women who face cancer.

Crete Fertility Centre is the first one which applies the method of ovarian tissue freezing for women who face cancer. The achievement of this method is not only the freezing procedure but also the fact that the tissue is fully functional after the thaw process, producing ovums. This method has been applied to many women who face cancer, making them able to live the dream of motherhood.

Dr. Fraidakis has a continuous scientific and clinical collaboration with Professor J.G. Grudzinskas, leading doctor in human assisted reproduction, aiming in the confrontation of complex and of unknown cause cases of human assisted reproduction. Simultaneously, he participates in the team of ovarian rejuvenation, an issue that affects thousands of women with high FSH and in several cases with amenorrhea.

Dr. Fraidakis is in cooperation with the Department of Biology of University of Crete and FORTH institute aiming in perfecting laboratory techniques for the prompt and of high guarantee estimation of the quality of embryos before the process of embryotransfer. Crete Fertility Centre already applies these techniques resulting in the raise of pregnancy rates.

Moreover, Dr Fraidakis is in close cooperation with the fertility clinic “Versys Clinics – Human Reproduction Institute” directed by MD, MA Attila Vereczkey, chair of Hungarian Human Reproduction Society, providing consulting services for the Pre-implantation Genetic Diagnosis (PGD) technique.
