Trifon G. Lainas was born in Pyrgos and studied at the Medical School of the University of Athens. He specialized in Obstetrics-Gynaecology at 'Elena Venizelou' maternity hospital, where he served as Senior Registrar for 8 years, with active participation in the scientific and educational activities of the clinic. He served at the department of endoscopy and microsurgery.
He obtained his doctorate from the Medical School of the University of Athens and he is the Director of the ART Unit 'Eugonia'. He has served as head of the department of endoscopic surgery at 'IASO' maternity hospital. His scientific interests and specialization include ART, reproductive endocrinology, reproductive surgery, laparoscopic and hysteroscopic surgery.
He is a member of the European Society of Human Reproduction and Embryology (ESHRE), American Society of Reproductive Medicine (ASRM), European Society of Gynaecological Endoscopy (ESGE), and of the Greek Societies of Fertility and Sterility, Gynaecological Endoscopy, Perinatal Medicine, Obstetrics and Gynaecology etc.
He has published a series of papers in international scientific journals and has presented a series of studies in international and national conferences. He is regularly invited speaker at scientific conferences and seminars.
He organized the 1st International Seminar of Perinatal Medicine - Biology of Reproduction in September 1992 as president of the organizing committee.
He established and organized the Diagnostic and Treatment Institute 'Iatriki Erevna' with a group of colleagues in 1988, the Department of IVF of 'Iatriki Erevna' in 1991 and the Endoscopic Surgery Unit of Athens Maternity Hospital in 1992.
In 2004 he established the specialized ART Unit 'Eugonia', which is a development and continuation of the successful IVF department of 'Iatriki Erevna'. 'Eugonia' (with continuous improvement of services) was quickly recognized as a high quality ART Unit with pregnancy rates being comparable to the highest percentages internationally. The decision for the establishment of 'Eugonia' resulted from the expansion of its activities, leading to its independence at management and functional levels.
His clinical activities range from the birth of thousands of healthy babies following successful IVF programs, to successful reproductive surgery operations, hysteroscopic and laparoscopic operations and impregnation of people with special needs.
His research activity stems from his extensive clinical experience in combination with processing of statistical data of 'Eugonia' and their comparison with international results. The intention is to create studies, some of them have been published, while others are in the process of implementation and publication.
He has published original studies in international scientific journals and has presented others at national conferences. His studies have a significant contribution to the improvement of treatment protocols and prevention of severe complications in IVF.
His contribution to the training of new doctors in obstetrics-gynaecology begins from his time as Senior Registrar at 'Elena Venizelou' Maternity Hospital. Since then he has been actively and enthusiastically implicated in the training of new gynaecologists and midwives in IVF, laparoscopic and hysteroscopic surgery.
The benefits of his constantly increasing knowledge and experience are conveyed in the consultations with infertile couples and in the solution of infertility problems, leading to the conception and birth of healthy children.
