# CENTER FOR THE STUDY OF REPRODUCTION

> **NIH NIH P30** · UNIVERSITY OF MICHIGAN AT ANN ARBOR · 1994 · $690,233

## Abstract

The Center for the Study of Reproduction supports a multidepartmental,
interdisciplinary group of faculty who are working jointly on research
problems related to mammalian reproductive biology.  The faculty has
successfully blended its training and investigative efforts over the past
twenty years, and has gained collective recognition for excellence of
reproductive research.  This renewal request seeks funds to maintain and
strengthen existing core facilities which provide the framework for the
Center.  The requested support is for the following core facilities: Core
A: Administration; Core B, Assays and Reagents; Core C, Biostatistics;
Core D, Laboratory Animal; Core E, Molecular Biology; Core F, Morphology;
and Core G, Sheep Research.  These core facilities support clinical and
basic science faculty who are studying pulsatile patterns of hormone
secretion; the regulation of gene expression in reproductive tissue;
development and function of pituitary, ovarian, testicular and uterine
tissues in vitro and in vivo; the mechanisms of hormone action; the
mechanisms by which neuroendocrine systems control reproduction; the
influence of photoperiodic rhythms, exercise and nutrition on
reproductive behavior and physiology; and the development of new, non-
radioisotopic assays.  During the last five years, Center investigators
have authored approximately three hundred publications in reproductive
research, authored more than a hundred publications in research related
to reproduction, have substantially increased their funded level of
competitively reviewed research support, and have generally distinguished
themselves in may arenas related to the objectives of the Center.  Over
this time the Center has also improved its quality assurance procedures,
attracted a number of new investigators to the Center, strengthened areas
of clinical and molecular investigation, and delivered more services to
more investigators than ever before.
