SYMPOSIUM AND STATE OF THE ART LECTURES

请求提供资金，以支持题为“新前沿”的专题讨论会 《雌激素生物学》和第22届年会上的三场最新讲座 生殖研究学会会议。会议将于 将于1989年8月7日至9日在密苏里大学举行 密苏里州哥伦比亚。最先进的讲座旨在 教育会员了解三个领域的新发展：修复 神经缺陷症通过神经移植、基因操作 转基因实验证明的信息，以及一个讨论 展望人类基因治疗的前景及其科学基础 这是这一前景的基础。三位受人尊敬的科学家已经同意了 就这些主题做一次演讲。他们是安·西尔弗曼博士、 罗伯特·哈默和伊维恩·卡森博士。这三个人 个人是年轻的科学家，他们应该能够为我们的 成员对这些领域的最新发展的新见解 研究。 研讨会将探讨雌激素生物学的新发展。为 这次研讨会我们邀请了卡罗尔·门德尔森博士来讨论这一用途 用于研究芳香酶P-450的分子探针。罗伯特·布伦纳博士将 介绍了他在细胞定位方面的一些开创性工作 用免疫细胞化学方法检测生殖道组织中的雌激素受体 技巧。最后，弗雷德·纳夫托林博士同意讨论快速 雌激素在膜水平上的作用。我们预计这些 演讲将是一次非常重要的教育经历 我们学会的不同成员。 研讨会的议程和最先进的讲座将 发表在《生殖生物学》上。

Funds are requested to support a Symposium entitled "New Frontiers in Estrogen Biology" and three State-of-the-Art Lectures at the 22nd Annual Meeting of the Society for the Study of Reproduction. The meeting will be held August 7 through 9, 1989 at the University of Missouri in Columbia, Missouri. The State-of-the-Art Lectures are designed to educate the membership on new developments in three areas: repair of neural defects by neural transplantation, the manipulation of genetic information as demonstrated by transgenic experiments, and a discussion of prospects for gene therapy in human beings and the scientific basis on which this prospect is based. Three respected scientists have consented to deliver a lecture on these subjects. They are Dr. Ann Silverman, Dr. Robert Hammer and Dr. Eveyln Karson, respectively. These three individuals are young scientists who should be able to give our membership new insights into recent developments in these areas of research. The Symposium will examine new developments in estrogen biology. For this Symposium we have as invited Dr. Carole Mendelson to discuss the use of molecular probes to study aromatase P-450. Dr. Robert Brenner will present some of his pioneering work on the cellular localization of the estrogen receptor in reproductive tract tissues using immunocytochemical techniques. Finally, Dr. Fred Naftolin has agreed to discuss rapid effects of estrogen at the membrane level. WE anticipate that these presentations will be an important educational experience for the very heterogeneous membership of our Society. Proceeding of the Symposium and State-of-the-Art Lectures will be published in Biology of Reproduction.
