This volume contains the proceedings of the XVth North American
Testis Workshop, held in Louisville, Kentucky, April 7 to 10, 1999,
to describe current advances in testis biology. The first two
chapters provide a useful historical perspective of testis
physiology and formulate compelling research questions about
important aspects of sperm formation and function. This prologue
sets the scene for the remainder of the volume that follows a
logical progression, as the title implies, from stem cell to cell
function, but that is necessarily preceded by sex determination,
the quintessential requirement for there being a testis in the
first place. The program for this XVth Testis Workshop evolved from
recommenda tions of the scientific committee and their advice on
the selection of invited speakers. The XVth Testis Workshop has a
strong comparative flavor with contributions on worms
(Caenorhabditis), flies (Drosophila), and chickens, which are
models that permit and thereby reveal the power of genetic analy
ses of the molecular mechanisms involved in spermatogenesis. A
glimpse into the future is provided with information from EST,
protein, and genome databases that already have an impact on
progress in our understanding of the male germ cell. Although there
is heavy emphasis in these chapters on cellular and molecular e,
Yents, database mining and translational profiling relevant to
testis function and dysfunction and assisted reproduction tech
nologies are not overlooked."
