UNL Science News - 03/23/04 $2.5 Million NIH Grant for Study of Social Issues Surrounding Infertility Lincoln, Neb., March 23, 2004 Nearly a third of American women will experience fertility problems during their reproductive years. Although medical science has made advances in treatment, a variety of social and psychological questions have remained unanswered. For instance, why do only about half of infertile couples seek treatment? A University of Nebraska-Lincoln social demographer is leading an interdisciplinary team of researchers who are studying this and related questions. Lynn White, professor of sociology, and her team will use a $2,559,414 grant from the National Institutes of Health for a long-term study titled "Pathways to treatments for infertility and the outcomes of infertility." The grant, issued by NIH's National Institute of Child Health and Human Development-Social and Behavioral Branch, funds a five-year study. The research team includes social scientists from five institutions and three disciplines. In addition to White, the team includes Julia McQuillan, assistant professor of sociology at UNL; Naomi Lacy, assistant professor in the research division of the University of Nebraska Medical Center's Department of Family Medicine; David Johnson, professor of sociology and human development and family studies, and Laurie Scheuble, senior lecturer in sociology, both at Penn State University; Arthur Greil, a sociologist from Alfred University in New York; and Mary Casey Jacob, a psychologist, who counsels infertile couples at University of Connecticut Health Center. Johnson formerly was a sociologist at UNL and Scheuble, his wife, was on the faculty at Doane College.

The Andrology Laboratory at the University of Utah has been providing infertility services since 1978. In the beginning, the laboratory consisted of a traveling lab brought to Salt Lake City every Wednesday. Over the years it has expanded to include the clinical laboratory, an IVF laboratory, a community laboratory and a research laboratory. The first IVF procedure was performed in 1982. Since that time, over 2500 IVF and GIFT procedures have taken place. The first micromanipulation procedure in the state of Utah took place in 1990. Micromanipulation procedures such as ICSI, assisted hatching and PGD were pioneered in the state of Utah at the University of Utah and are now done routinely. Over the years the Andrology program has won many honors of distinction. In 1989, "American Health" magazine listed the IVF program at the University of Utah as the "top" IVF program in the United States. Research papers have won the award of "best paper" for the Journal of the American Urological Association and Archives of Andrology. Research on aneuploidy in sperm and eggs began in 1998,leading to the development of the first and only Pre-implantation Genetic Diagnosis (PGD) program in the state of Utah.

Infertility specialists warn that bills now before Congress might go beyond cloning to stifle research on important new infertility therapies. INFERTILITY RESEARCHERS TAKE PAINS to define cloning in the narrowest terms, as a process that would use the nucleus from a single mature cell and place it in a woman's egg from which the nucleus had been removed - then jolting that hybrid cell to life with electricity. No sperm need be involved, so the baby's genetic material would all come from just one person. While many infertility specialists recoil at the prospect of such "solo" cloning, there are critical aspects of the process that could help infertile couples. A number of infertility programs across the country are working on treatments that might be called "near-cloning." Doctor Jamie Grifo is a leading infertility researcher at New York University.

Essential gene for male fertility found Date: Thursday, May 22, 2003 @ 8:35 PM PDT Topic: Bio and Medicine A gene that belongs to a family of genes implicated in heart disease has been found to be essential for male fertility but has no impact on female fertility, researchers at U of T, along with colleagues in New York and Japan, have discovered. From University of Toronto Essential gene for male fertility found Mice without Fkbp6 gene have significantly reduced testes, completely lack sperm cells by Janet Wong May 22, 2003 A gene that belongs to a family of genes implicated in heart disease has been found to be essential for male fertility but has no impact on female fertility, researchers at U of T, along with colleagues in New York and Japan, have discovered. "This gene - Fkbp6 - is a member of a family of genes that have been implicated in immunosuppression and heart disease," says Dr. Josef Penninger, professor of medical biophysics and immunology at U of T and senior author of a new paper in the May 23 issue of Science. "That this gene would control male fertility was completely unexpected. We originally thought Fkbp6 was important for heart function but the only place we could find it was in sperm and oocytes." Penninger and post-doctoral fellow Michael Crackower made the surprising discovery when they eliminated the Fkbp6 gene in genetically engineered mice. When the gene was removed, the oocytes (cells in the early phases of egg development) in female mice appeared normal but all the sperm cells in males had died, resulting in complete infertility. Penninger and Crackower realized their work bore striking similarities to some research by Japanese scientists who, over the past decade, have been studying a naturally occurring mutation in rats that also caused aspermia (lack of sperm). The U of T researchers recognized that the genetic mutation in their mice was similar to the spontaneous mutation seen in the rats.

University of Iowa News Release Sept. 15, 2003 Glass To Speak About Wealth-Infertility Paradox Sept. 20 While overpopulation remains a concern in many underdeveloped countries, some of the world's richest nations are facing the opposite problem birth rates so low that the population is not even being replaced, much less growing. This, coupled with advances in science and medicine that are increasing life expectancy, is creating a scenario in which a rapidly aging population could be left without an adequate working-age population to support it. Jennifer Glass, professor of sociology in the University of Iowa College of Liberal Arts and Sciences, will discuss the causes and implications of declining population in her presentation, "Oh Baby: Fertility Decline in the Richest Nations on Earth," at 10 a.m. Saturday, Sept. 20, in room 40 Schaeffer Hall. This lecture and discussion session is part of the college's annual Saturday Scholars series. Perhaps paradoxically, the rich nations with the lowest fertility rates are those in which women traditionally do not work outside the home, while some of the highest fertility rates in the developed world are in countries like Norway and France where most adult women are employed. Glass attributes this to a national support system for employed mothers in these countries, which have laws mandating, among other things, extended paid maternity leave, family-friendly workplaces and reduced work hours for employed parents.

Fisher saw Darwin as another father By James R. Moore The career of Ronald Aylmer Fisher (1890 ­ 1962), a mathematician, eugenicist and founder of the neo-Darwinian synthesis, illustrates how a scientist’s works — charitable acts, marriage and child rearing, church attendance — are essential for understanding science and religion in their lives. Scholars have struggled to find intellectual coherence in Fisher’s commitments to Darwinism, Anglican Christianity and eugenics. The problem can be addressed by asking whether there was anything in Fisher’s practical experience that gave coherence to his interests and beliefs. What practical mode of faith, or faithful mode of practice, shaped his life? It was above all the family, or rather families, with their myriad of practical and emotional challenges, that rendered a mathematically based eugenic Darwinian Christianity not just possible, but vital, for Fisher. From his mother, Fisher acquired not only a lifelong devotion to the Church of England, but abnormally bad eyesight and an incapacity to enter into others’ feelings. Known as “Piggie” at Cambridge for his tiny thick spectacles and dishevelled appearance, Fisher found strength in Nietzsche’s superman and acclaim for his mathematical treatment of Darwinian natural selection. In 1911, Fisher helped set up a university eugenics society, which attracted churchmen like himself, full of noblesse oblige, who preached “positive eugenics” as a practical method of human redemption. Fisher became acquainted with the Darwin family, which was the most illustrious scientific family in town and a mainstay of the university eugenics society. Leonard, Charles Darwin’s second-youngest son, became Fisher’s patron. As president of the national Eugenics Society, Darwin argued for “bigger families in good stocks;” Fisher honored him “as a father,” dedicating to him his famous
