About
Amir Mor is an Adjunct Assistant Professor at Yale School of Medicine, affiliated with the Seli Lab. His research focuses on innovative diagnostic tools for obstetric challenges, including pregnancy viability assessment, ectopic pregnancy detection, and rupture of membranes identification. He collaborates closely with leading clinicians like Hugh Taylor and David Seifer, developing low-cost diagnostic solutions applicable in resource-limited settings. His work bridges reproductive endocrinology and biomedical engineering, aiming to improve early pregnancy management through non-invasive methods. Dr. Mor's 2019 recognition as a finalist in the Yale Innovation Summit highlights his impactful contributions to clinical diagnostics. He holds an MD-PhD in Reproductive Endocrinology & Infertility, emphasizing translational research that transitions laboratory discoveries into clinical practice.
Key research areas include fetal tissue biomarker detection (e.g., alpha-fetoprotein analysis), point-of-care testing systems, and automation of assisted reproductive technologies. His lab develops technologies like sanitary pad-based tests for rupture of membranes and bedside kits to rule out ectopic pregnancies, addressing critical gaps in maternal healthcare. Recent work explores real-time confirmation of oocyte viability during intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI), advancing precision in assisted reproduction.
