| Summary: | This volume contains the proceedings of the Symposium on In Vitro Fertilization and Embryo Transfer in Primates, sponsored by Serono Symposia, USA, in May 1992. These papers provide an in-depth analysis of current IVF-ET technology as applied to nonhuman primates. Although IVF-ET is now considered standard treatment for several categories of human infertility, a nonhuman primate model remains highly desirable for the study of reproductive and developmental processes, as well as for the establishment of improved disease models for medical research and the preservation of endangered nonhuman primate species. A better understanding of the primate reproductive system is thus essential to facilitate a global effort to control human population and to aid childless families attempting to overcome their infertility. |
