Reproductive biologists to meet here

Nearly 1,200 scientists from around the world will convene at the university July 15-18 to present the latest research in reproductive biology at the Society for the Study of Reproduction‘s 33rd annual meeting.

From the onset of adult disease in the womb to the biology of pregnancy, scientists will discuss the latest developments in a field that has become increasingly important to human health and medicine.

Topics at the meeting (see meeting hiughlights) will cover nearly all aspects of reproductive biology, including the role of farm species in the light of the new genomics and the future of male and female reproductive biology.

Sessions begin Saturday, July 15, and run through Tuesday, July 18, at the Memorial Union and several nearby buildings.
