The Society for Reproduction and Fertility (SRF) was
established to promote research in reproduction and
to disseminate information to the public at large. The
Society was formed in July 2001 through amalgamation
of the Society for the Study of Fertility (SSF) and
the Journals of Reproduction and Fertility Ltd (JRF).
The SRF carries forward the long standing heritage of
the SSF/JRF in being one of the principal scientific
societies specialising in reproductive biology, both
within the UK and internationally.
The Society's principal aim is to support research and
teaching in all aspects of reproductive biology. This
is accomplished through the following specific activities:
- By supporting and organizing at least one substantial
scientific meeting per year. (Presently
an annual SRF conference, with the society also supporting
joint meetings with ACE, BAS and BFS every two years).
- By providing sponsorship for workshops
to discuss specific topics of relevance to the society
in detail.
- By providing financial assistance for members to
attend SRF meetings, and other meetings as appropriate,
through the provision of travel grants.
- By providing funds for Summer studentships
enabling undergraduate students to gain research experience
by undertaking a research project in reproductive
biology.
- Through the provision of financial support to cover
travel and living expenses, enabling senior traveling
scientists to give a series of lectures at
different venues throughout the UK, and potentially
expanding into Europe
- By providing members with an interactive website
with links to disseminate information and discussions
on topics of general and specific interest to members.
- By assessing and initiating appropriate any viable
new initiatives that arise which
will benefit the membership.
- To produce a monthly journal,
or journals publishing top quality papers in reproductive
biology.
- To publish proceedings of meetings
or symposia as supplements.
