BIOGRAPHY

Dr. Nancy Wayne is Professor of Physiology at the David Geffen School of Medicine at UCLA. She received her B.A. from Northwestern University, Ph.D. from the University of Michigan, and postdoctoral training from the University of Virginia. She joined the UCLA faculty in 1992. Dr. Wayne has spent over 30 years performing research in the area of reproductive neuroendocrinology. A basic science researcher, she investigates the biology of GnRH neurons in the central nervous system that control reproduction. Her laboratory studies mechanisms controlling GnRH neuron physiology in order to better predict clinical outcomes regarding reproductive maturation and fertility. Dr. Wayne is also a dedicated educator, and is co-chair of the first year medical school course on Gastrointestinal, Endocrine, and Reproductive Medicine. She received the School of Medicine’s 2010 Excellence in Education Award. Dr. Wayne is also Associate Vice Chancellor for Research, focused primarily on laboratory safety.

报告人简介：

南希·韦恩博士是加州大学洛杉矶分校大卫格芬医学院的生理学教授。她从美国西北大学获得了学士学位，从密歇根大学获得博士学位，并在弗吉尼亚大学接受博士后训练。她于1992年加入加州大学洛杉矶分校任教。韦恩博士30年来一直从事生殖内分泌学领域的研究。作为一名基础科学研究者，她的研究侧重于促性腺激素释放激素（GnRH）神经元在中枢神经系统的控制繁殖生物学。她的实验室研究GnRH神经元生理调控机制，以便更好的预测有关生殖成熟和生育的临床结果。同时，韦恩博士也是一名杰出的教育家，她担任医学院第一年胃肠道学、内分泌学和生殖医学课程的联合主席。她获得医学院2010年优秀教育奖。另外，韦恩博士还担任加州大学洛杉矶分校实验室安全方面科研联合副校长。
