This 1987 ORPRC Symposium on Primate Reproductive Biology, the
third in a series, marked the twenty-fifth anniversary of the
Oregon Regional Primate Research Center (ORPRC). In organizing
these symposia, we have emphasized the dedication of many ORPRC
staff members to research with nonhuman primates as models for
human reproduction. The first symposium in this series, organized
by William Montagna, was held in May 1981. Appropriately for a
beginning series, its topic was fetal endocrinology. The subject of
this year's symposium was the primate ovary, and, as in the past,
scientists from around the world, including Sweden, Scotland,
England, West Germany, and India met in Beaverton, Oregon, to
exchange ideas and information on this important "aspect of
reproduction. The international scope of the symposium reflects our
belief that both the problems and their solutions extend beyond
national boundaries. Many of the nonhuman primates that we rely on
as models are endangered as civilization, through population
pressure, encroaches on their natural habitats. Without a deeper
understanding of how primate reproduction is regulated, and without
the control over human population that such an understanding can
bring, the quality of life for all primate species may well become
substantially diminished. Consequently, we dedicate these symposia
to the thesis that a deeper understanding of primate reproductive
biology will ultimately improve all primate life. Robert M. Brenner
Charles H. Phoenix vii PREFACE Today there is renewed interest in
the processes controlling the gametogenic and endocrine functions
of the ovary.
