Dear Members of the ISFP,

It is with great enthusiasm that I begin my two-year term as President of the International Society for Fertility Preservation (ISFP), coinciding with the launch of our new website. Serving as President is both a privilege and a responsibility, and I am committed to building on the society’s strong foundation while advancing our shared mission.

A key responsibility of each new President is organizing the upcoming ISFP World Congress, a hallmark event for our society. Following our successful conferences in Brussels (2022) and Tokyo (2024), the next conference will return to America. I am pleased to announce that the 2026 ISFP World Congress is scheduled to take place in Miami, Florida, USA, from November 19-21, 2026. Please mark your calendars now, as we look forward to welcoming you to this exciting gathering of global experts.

Beyond the Congress, my ambition is to enhance the vitality and engagement of our society. To this end, I am dedicated to fostering more dynamic communication and collaboration through the open and to the member-exclusive sections of the ISFP website.

These pages will feature an array of resources, including:

• presentations from past ISFP conferences;
• key insights from pivotal lectures, which members can utilize to strengthen and expand clinical activities in their local settings;
• a dedicated space for innovative ideas, enabling members to initiate new projects and activities inspired by shared knowledge.

Additionally, the field of male fertility restoration has reached a significant turning point, transitioning from experimental phases to clinical implementation. This important area will receive increased attention during my presidency, reflecting its growing impact on fertility preservation practices worldwide.

I look forward to working with all of you as we continue to advance the ISFP\’s goals, promote scientific excellence, and expand our collective contributions to the field of fertility preservation. Together, let us build an even stronger, more connected, and innovative society.

Claus Yding Andersen

President of ISFP (2024-2026)
