He is Professor of Obstetrics and Gynecology at Weill Medical College of Cornell University and was appointed an endowed professorship in 1994 - the Revlon Distinguished Professor of Reproductive Medicine in Obstetrics and Gynecology. Dr. Rosenwaks is a diplomate of the American Board of Obstetrics and Gynecology and received his subspecialty certification in Reproductive Endocrinology in 1981. He is a noted world authority on reproductive endocrinology and infertility and one of the founding pioneers in the assisted reproductive technologies.

Throughout his career, Dr. Rosenwaks has been instrumental in developing new fertility-enhancing protocols and the study of advanced recombinant-derived gonadotropins to assist in producing mature, high quality sperm and eggs. The development of a highly successful egg donation program at New York Weill Cornell has made it possible to achieve pregnancies in women who have premature ovarian failure. Egg donation, first developed in the United States by Dr. Rosenwaks, has also made it possible to answer many key questions about human reproduction.
