| Research Division Introduction |

| In 1996, our department created a Division of Research, appointing Dr. Kathy Timms as Director. Teaming with Drs. Michael Roberts and H. Alan Garverick, an application for funding was submitted to the State of Missouri Life Sciences Mission Enhancement Program. This application, designed to build a bridge between animal reproductive biology and human reproductive medicine, was awarded. It provided funding for four additional faculty positions, two of which would join our department’s research division. When our current chairman arrived, he negotiated additional support for two more research faculty in our department. |
With four new faculty positions and newly remodeled plus new laboratory space our division took root. It has been a joy to watch the Division of Reproduction and Perinatal Research grow and flourish. We have established an atmosphere of collegiality and collaboration within our division, across campus, nationally and internationally |

This website was established to foster communication with other research laboratories doing similar work in order to promote the flow of ideas and information. Students (medical, graduate and undergraduate) looking for a research home may read about our work and gain an appreciation for our goals and our approach to translational science. Further, we hope to act as reference source for persons suffering from reproductive and perinatal anomalies, so that they may gain an understanding of the research we are performing and our goals to solve these problems. |
