Alabama university pauses IVF treatments after court ruling
An Alabama university temporarily halted in-vitro fertilization (IVF) treatments on Wednesday after the high court in the southern U.S. state ruled that frozen embryos outside the womb are children.
The University of Alabama at Birmingham (UAB) said it had paused IVF treatments "as it evaluates the Alabama Supreme Court's decision that a cryopreserved embryo is a human being."
