Introduction
Research in our laboratory focus on: 1) understanding the molecular and cellular mechanisms underlying the brain signal for ovulation; 2) determining developmental mechanisms responsible for sex differences in the brain region that controls ovulation and 3) determining how exposure to environmental contaminants like dioxins interfere with the development of this brain region and gonadotoropi release patterns.
