Innovation Final Project

This final project included medical research in order to develop an invention that helps patients throughout their journey.

Throughout the semester, I have stayed consistent with the topic of In Vitro Fertilization. Basic research of what IVF is guided my first project and allowed me to collect further insights while conducting my interviews. I was able to use my knowledge on the past and present of IVF and implement my creativity for what the future of IVF could look like. I realized that although IVF is currently a procedure done because women have no other options to conceive naturally, in the future it could be an exciting option that many women chose. As a society we have progressed immensely in the past 50 decades. Not too long ago, women’s only role was to be a housewife. Fast forward to today and more and more women are choosing their careers over family life, or even choosing both if they wish. IVF could help with this. For women, fertility starts to decrease by only the age of 30. By 35, their fertility rate is dropping rapidly. And in 10 years, by 45 a natural pregnancy is very unlikely. As women continue to receive higher education and focus on their career, this means they are also having families later on in life. By going through the procedure of freezing eggs, a woman can then have her eggs thawed and continue with the final steps of the IVF process. This technique is highly effective as typically only 10% of the eggs do not survive and 90% do. I believe that this is a great innovation because women should be able to focus on their career without worrying about their fertility. 

Below is the mock-up of the subscription.  I knew that I wanted to visualize what the inside of the box would look like if somebody received the subscription package. I also changed the design of the outside of the box and made it more simplistic. I changed the color to a dusty rose pink to match the inside of the box. I found that placing the products inside the box better represents the artifact and what it would be like if this were to be executed. The inside package is an example of what one of them would look like, and new products would be sent each month.
