The MyBaby Launch Ceremony was jointly hosted by the Center for Reproductive 
Medicine of Renji Hospital and the Shanghai Quality Control Center for Assisted 
Reproductive Technology. By combining the professional assurance services of 
DNV with VeChain's advanced blockchain technology, MyBaby enables the 
verification of key steps of In-Vitro fertilization (IVF) and provides private, 
exclusive, end-to-end data access for prospective parents undergoing treatment. 
By embracing cutting edge technology, Renji Hospital commits itself to further 
enhancing equity and quality of life for patients. 

A New Era in Fertility Treatment 

MyBaby is the first service of its kind to combine the merits of third-party 
assured data verification with the immutability of blockchain technology. All 
information, imagery and data trails, from imagery produced by medical tools to 
the delivery of the zygote itself will be securely uploaded on VeChainThor 
blockchain and only accessible to authorized users of the MyBaby Application.

MyBaby allows users to view and track the extraction, labelling and scoring of 
fertilized eggs as well as the cultivation and preservation of embryos. The 
application also solves the traditional problems associated with the privacy of 
sensitive medical data. The cryptographically secured properties of blockchain 
technology create a secure and reliable environment and enhance the user 
experience in a way that is unprecedented in the IVF field.

Renji Hospital and VeChain at the Forefront of Healthcare Innovation

An agreement on further cooperation of the blockchain project was also signed 
between Renji Hospital and VeChain during the event. According to Sun Yun, 
Director of the Center for Reproductive Medicine of Renji Hospital, "The 
combination of assisted reproductive medicine and blockchain technology creates 
incredible chemistry, making Renji Hospital the first in its line to probe such 
innovation. We will be offering more trustworthy, private, secured services."

Not afraid to innovate, the Renji hospital has been at the forefront of 
progress in the medical-blockchain space. In 2019, Renji Hospital officially 
announced (
