All Rights Reserved. Final Program JULY 6 - 9, 2021 | BOSTON, MA Message from the SRI President Welcome to the 68th Annual Meeting of the Society for Reproductive Investigation (SRI), July 6 - 9, 2021 in Boston, MA, USA. The theme of the 2021 is meeting, “Navigating the Future for Reproductive Science”. For the first time, the 2021 SRI Annual meeting will be held in a hybrid format—providing options for both in-person and virtual attendance! Watch your email for a link to the virtual platform, so that you can enjoy ALL sessions. The theme of the 2021 meeting is, “Navigating the Future for Reproductive Science.” With Irina Burd, MD, PhD, as Program Director, the Program Committee has developed an outstanding program that includes President’s Distinguished Researchers, career development activities, Oral Sessions, invited Mini-Symposia, invited Lunch and Learn Symposia and a Hot Topics Plenary Session. The meeting will feature inspiring talks from two outstanding President’s Distinguished Researcher Awardees: Joan Steitz, PhD, 2018 Lasker-Koshland Awardee from the Yale School of Medicine and Gregg Semenza, MD, PhD, 2019 Nobel Laureate from Johns Hopkins. In addition, Susan Fisher, PhD, the 2020 March of Dimes Developmental Biology Prize Awardee from University of California, San Francisco will deliver an exciting lecture on her research. Several career development activities and networking opportunities will be offered, including Career Development Workshops, “Your Grant in One Page Clinic,” and “Connection Corners.” Also NEW this year, the Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Forum, led by our new Vice President for Diversity and Structural Change, will be held on Thursday, July 8, over the lunch hour, giving all participants an option to attend. To allow all abstract submitters to participate and share their science, all posters will be virtual this year. However, poster presenters were invited to hang their poster in the poster hall, and so we invite you to visit the hall during the scheduled hours to view the science in person! Watch for the newly added abstract categories this year including Women’s Health Disparities and Inequities and COVID-19. While restrictions have been listed here in Boston, the SRI leadership strongly has encouraged all in-person attendees to come vaccinated. While masks are not required, we encourage you to do what is comfortable. As always, the 68th Annual SRI Meeting will be highly collegial and provide a forum for outstanding science and the opportunity for fruitful global networking. On behalf of the SRI Council, Program Committee, and Staff, we are pleased to offer this NEW option for participation! Come in person or connect online to share your science with your friends and colleagues at SRI!

Yet, women have another sex hormone, which is often Allopregnanolone disregarded: Progesterone. The goal of this article is to provide a comprehensive review on progesterone, and its Emotion metabolite allopregnanolone, emphasizing three key areas: biological properties, main functions, and effects on Hormonal contraceptives mood in women. Recent years of intensive research on progesterone and allopregnanolone have paved the way Postpartum depression for new treatment of postpartum depression. However, treatment for premenstrual syndrome and premenstrual Premenstrual dysphoric disorder dysphoric disorder as well as contraception that women can use without risking mental health problems are still Progesterone needed. As far as progesterone is concerned, we might be dealing with a two-edged sword: while its metabolite allopregnanolone has been proven useful for treatment of PPD, it may trigger negative symptoms in women with PMS and PMDD. Overall, our current knowledge on the beneficial and harmful effects of progesterone is limited and further research is imperative. Introduction 1.

Wrongful Extradition: Reforming the Committal Phase of Canada’s Extradition Law ROBERT J. CURRIE* ABSTRACT There has recently been an upswing in interest around extradition in Canada, particularly in light of the high-profile and troubling case of Hassan Diab who was extradited to France on the basis of what turned out to be an ill-founded case. Diab’s case highlights some of the problems with Canada’s Extradition Act and proceedings thereunder. This paper argues that the “committal stage” of extradition proceedings, involving a judicial hearing into the basis of the requesting state’s case, is unfair and may not be compliant with the Charter and that the manner in which the Crown conducts these proceedings contributes to this unfairness. It also argues that regardless of the Act’s constitutionality, in light of Diab and other disturbing cases, the time is ripe for law reform to ensure that * Professor of Law, Schulich School of Law, Dalhousie University.

  • The Evolutionary Appearance of Signaling Motifs in PGRMC1
    BioScience Trends Advance Publication P1 Original Article Advance Publication DOI: 10.5582/bst.2017.01009 The evolutionary appearance of signaling motifs in PGRMC1 Michael A. Cahill* School of Biomedical Sciences, Charles Sturt University, Wagga Wagga, Australia. Summary A complex PGRMC1-centred regulatory system controls multiple cell functions. Although PGRMC1 is phosphorylated at several positions, we do not understand the mechanisms regulating its function. PGRMC1 is the archetypal member of the membrane associated progesterone receptor (MAPR) family. Phylogentic comparison of MAPR proteins suggests that the ancestral metazoan "PGRMC-like" MAPR gene resembled PGRMC1/PGRMC2, containing the equivalents of PGRMC1 Y139 and Y180 SH2 target motifs. It later acquired a CK2 site with phosphoacceptor at S181. Separate PGRMC1 and PGRMC2 genes with this "PGRMC-like" structure diverged after the separation of vertebrates from protochordates. Terrestrial tetrapods possess a novel proline-rich PGRMC1 SH3 target motif centred on P64 which in mammals is augmented by a phosphoacceptor at PGRMC1 S54, and in primates by an additional S57 CK2 site. All of these phosphoacceptors are phosphorylated in vivo. This study suggests that an increasingly sophisticated system of PGRMC1-modulated multicellular functional regulation has characterised animal evolution since Precambrian times. Keywords: Phosphorylation, evolution, steroid signalling, kinases, metazoan 1. Introduction that regulates synthesis of sterol precursors, conferring responsiveness to progesterone
