# THE LABORATORIES FOR REPRODUCTIVE BIOLOGY

> **NIH NIH P30** · UNIV OF NORTH CAROLINA CHAPEL HILL · 1994 · $431,490

## Abstract

The NICHD Population Research Core Grant operates within the Laboratories
for Reproductive Biology to promote interdisciplinary research on the
control of reproduction leading to better methods for contraception and for
treatment of reproductive disorders.  Major emphasis has been placed on the
male.

A broad range of research centering on molecular mechanisms regulating male
reproductive functions has been brought together in The Laboratories for
Reproductive Biology within the areas of reproductive neuroendocrinology,
regulation of gonadal function,  sperm maturation, fertilization and
implantation.

The shared Core Facilities included in the P-30 population center  provide
recombinant DNA, tissue culture, histochemistry-microscopy,
radioimmunoassay, peptide synthesis/sequencing, transgenic mouse, and
administrative services.  In addition to enhancing the productivity,
quality and cost effectiveness of research, the Cores nurture
interdisciplinary collaboration among reproductive scientists and
facilitate technical training within The Laboratories for Reproductive
Biology.  Eligibility for core use is requested for 33 funded research
projects.
