invited by  State Key Laboratory of Reproductive Biology

Topic:　(1) Something you may not know about Drs. M.C. Chang and G. Pincus; (2) Assisted fertilization: today and future
Subject: Reproductive Biology
Visiting Time: Oct 8 -11, 2008

Abstract:

Yana is tireless in pushing the leading edge of his field.  To accomplish this, one of his visions was to establish a center of excellence for the study of reproductive and developmental biology.  In 2000, he founded and became the first Director of the Institute for Biogenesis Research (IBR), which is housed in the Department of Anatomy, Biochemistry and Physiology.  The IBR faculty, which began only with Yana, has grown to include graduate faculty members, ranging from junior to senior level and whose research programs are supported by grants from the National Institutes of Health and private foundations.  Today, research in the IBR has expanded to include stem cell biology, genome structure and its role in embryogenesis, transgenesis technology, and the elucidation of molecular mechanisms during normal and abnormal embryo development.
