Reproductive Physiology
Research in Reproductive Physiology is supported through the efforts of our faculty working with a variety of organisms including: cattle, pigs, poultry, fish, and rodents. Areas of research encompass topics such as: the neuroendocrine control of reproduction, biological rhythms, germ cell development, oogenesis, the control of follicular maturation, function of the corpus luteum, lactation, early embryonic development of the chick, and incubation and hatching. 
Many research programs utilize advanced techniques in molecular and cellular biology, endocrinology, genetics, and biotechnology to answer important questions related to the physiological basis of animal reproduction. In many cases, this work translates into significant applications for the veterinary and animal agriculture industries.
