This three-year award for U.S.-France cooperative research in neuroendocrinology involves the research group of Yonathan Zohar of the United States Air Force Academy and Sylvie Dufour of the Museum of Natural History in Paris, France. The award provides travel and living expenses to Dr. Zohar, a postdoctoral researcher, and a graduate student for short-term visits to France. The objective of the research is to investigate the differential regulation of two forms of Gonadotropin releasing hormone (GnRH) present in teleost fish, the European eel, and striped bass. This hormone produced in the brain is essential for the control of reproduction in all vertebrates. In particular, the investigators are interested in the differential roles of multiple GnRHs and their involvement in reproduction in a single species. The project takes advantage of the complementary expertise of the investigators and will advance our understanding of the function of multiple GnRH in reproduction.

这项为期三年的美法神经内分泌学合作研究奖由美国空军学院的约纳森·佐哈尔（Yonathan Zohar）和法国巴黎自然历史博物馆的西尔维·杜福尔（Sylvie Dufour）的研究小组颁发。 该奖项为博士后研究员和研究生佐哈尔博士提供短期访问法国的旅费和生活费。 该研究的目的是调查硬骨鱼、欧洲鳗鱼和条纹鲈鱼中两种形式的促性腺激素释放激素 (GnRH) 的差异调节。 这种在大脑中产生的激素对于控制所有脊椎动物的繁殖至关重要。 研究人员尤其对多个 GnRH 的不同作用及其在单个物种繁殖中的参与感兴趣。 该项目利用了研究人员的互补专业知识，将增进我们对多种 GnRH 在生殖中的功能的理解。
