Louise Brown

Louise Brown, born on July 25, 1978, in England, is known as the world's first "test-tube baby." Her birth marked a significant milestone in medical science, as she was conceived through in vitro fertilization (IVF), a procedure where an egg is fertilized by sperm outside the body and then implanted in the uterus. Her arrival demonstrated the possibilities of reproductive technology and provided hope for couples struggling with infertility. Louise's birth sparked discussions about ethics and the future of assisted reproductive technologies, making her a pivotal figure in both medical and social contexts.
