Produktbeschreibung

This Symposium had 7 main themes with invited speakers, 17 free oral presentations and 44 poster presentations. Morning sessions were separated from afternoon sessions by a two-hour lunch break to inspire to spontaneous interaction between participants. The long, bright evenings of early May with a generous weather also contributed to the intended atmosphere of scientific and social interchange.

Themes

• Are Sperm at the Verge of Extinction?
• Sperm DNA - protection and delivery of a complete and undamaged genome
• Sperm Competition, Evolution and Sperm-Egg Interaction
• Genetic aspects of sperm production and performance and its effects on the offspring
• CASA - Advances and Challenges
• Challenges for Sperm Function In Vitro
• Heterogeneity of Sperm Morphology and Laboratory Techniques to Overcome Assessment Challenges
• Sperm Motility (Free Poster Theme)
• Fertility and Infertility (Free Poster Theme)

Autorenporträt

At the time of the Symposium all editors were active at ANOVA (Andrology, Sexual Medicine, Trans Gender Medicine), Clinic of Endocrinology, Karolinska University Hospital, and Department of Medicine Huddinge, Karolinska Institutet, Stockholm Sweden. Ulrik Kvist, M.D. Ph.D. and Associate Professor, is well-known for a long term scientific contribution especially concerning sperm chromatin stabilization and documented activity in Spermatology. Lars Björndahl, M.D. Ph.D, Senior consultant physician and Head of ANOVA Andrology Laboratory, started as post graduate student with Ulrik Kvist as supervisor and has become leading in quality development in basic human semen examination within the European Society of Human Reproduction and Embryology, Special Interest Group in Andrology, WHO editorial committee for the manual on semen examination and project leader for an ISO standard on Basic Semen Examination. Rebecka Holmberg, BMS and Ph.D. is highly experienced in basic semen analysis and expert on quality management of andrology laboratories. John Flanagan, Ph.D. and Associate Professor in molecular endocrinology, is expert in molecular investigations of male reproductive organ functions.
