HOUSTON — Dr. Fuller W. Bazer, director of Texas A&M University’s Institute of Biosciences and Technology and O.D. Butler Professor of Animal Science, has become president of the Society for the Study of Reproduction.
The society elected him at its annual meeting last month in London, Ontario, Canada. It has a worldwide membership of 3,600 scientists who come from 26 different countries.
The society honored Dr. Bazer in 1990 with its award for outstanding research. His research focuses on conceptus-endometrial interactions that establish and maintain pregnancy, plus the roles of uterine secretions as enzymes, transport proteins and regulatory proteins, as they relate to animal and human biology. He also studies interactions between the reproductive, endocrine and immune systems.
