| Dear Members of the Reproductive Biology Community: |
| On behalf of SSR, it is our great pleasure to welcome you to the 57th Annual Meeting of the Society of the Study of Reproduction. This year’s meeting, to be held in Dublin, Ireland, is the first meeting in SSR’s history to be held outside North America. Doing so represents a commitment by the society to the globalization of reproductive biology research. Our field will thrive best when we all work together regardless of geographical location, gender, or ethnic background. |
| The theme of the meeting is “Evolution of Reproductive Sciences: Where Do We Go”. It was chosen to represents our focus on both the evolutionary forces that have resulted in the extraordinary diversity in reproductive patterns in vertebrate species that exist today and on the evolving nature of our understanding of the processes controlling reproduction. |
| We hope you enjoy the meeting and come away with renewed enthusiasm for our scientific discipline. |
We look forward to welcoming you in person in Dublin! |
