Biography

Dr Duc Huynh graduated with a Doctor of Medicine degree in 2012 from Pham Ngoc Thach University of Medicine, Ho Chi Minh city, Vietnam where he then worked clinically. In 2015, he completed the Master of Clinical Embryology (MCE) at Monash University, Australia and has been a practical tutor for the MCE program and a trainer of the EPRD’s workshops since graduating. Since 2018, Dr Huynh has been a practical coordinator in the Master of Clinical Embryology degree and coordination of short courses and workshops offered to professionals working in the IVF industry. Dr Huynh has become an invaluable and integral member of the EPRD team, introducing new technology and training methods.
 
Dr Huynh has been involved in re-writing the MCE training and procedures manual and has particularly advanced the EPRDs reputation in micromanipulation training such as Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection (ICSI) and embryo biopsy. He has a unique approach to teaching which has been recognised favourably not only by MCE students but also by all our professional workshop participants. In 2018, Dr Huynh was involved to provide new teaching methods particularly recording pre-class teaching videos and post class feedback and online quizzes to optimise knowledge transfer.
 
Additionally, Dr Huynh has been working as a senior clinical embryologist and embryo biopsy specialist at City Fertility Centre (CFC) in Victoria clinics (CFC Melbourne and CFC Bundoora) since 2020.
 
Dr Huynh has international collaborations with IVF Clinics in Vietnam, Indonesia, Thailand, Hong Kong, India and can aid in the placement of students in ART clinics in these countries.
