要求提供资金，以支助一次题为“新领域”的专题讨论会。 雌激素生物学”和三个国家的最先进的讲座在第22届年会 生殖研究学会会议。 会议将 将于1989年8月7日至9日在密苏里州大学举行， 哥伦比亚，密苏里州。 最先进的讲座旨在 教育会员了解三个领域的新发展： 神经缺陷的神经移植，操纵遗传 转基因实验所证明的信息，并讨论 人类基因治疗的前景和 这个前景是基于什么。 三位德高望重的科学家同意 就这些主题发表演讲 他们是安·西尔弗曼博士， 罗伯特·哈默和艾芙琳·卡森博士 这三 个人是年轻的科学家谁应该能够给我们的 成员对这些领域最近发展的新见解， research. 研讨会将探讨雌激素生物学的新发展。 为 本次研讨会，我们邀请了卡罗尔·门德尔松博士讨论使用 研究芳香酶P-450的分子探针 罗伯特·布伦纳博士将 目前他的一些开创性工作的细胞定位的 生殖道组织雌激素受体的免疫细胞化学研究 技术. 最后，弗雷德·纳夫托林博士同意讨论 雌激素在膜水平的作用。 我们预计，这些 演讲将是非常重要的教育经验， 我们社会的异质成员。 研讨会的进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.
