Germ cells, fatty acid transportation and the multigene family of fatty acid-
-binding proteins (FABPs): topic of our Study Club (April 27, 2006, 00:10)
Function, structure and polymorphism of the multigene family of fatty acid-binding
proteins (FABPs) and mechanisms of fatty acid transportation during spermato-
-genesis will be discuss in our Study Club of this week. This topic is based on two
papers which were published on Journal of Cell Science [2005, 118(14): 3027-35]
and  J. Appl. Genet [2006, 47 (1): 39-48].This Study Club is scheduled on April
28, 2006, 14:00-16:00, at Conference Room at the first floor of College of Life
Sciences Building. The speaker is E Hu. Welcome to our Study Club!

Spermatogenesis and lipid composition, topic of Study Club (April 18, 2006, 9:50)
The paper "Biochemical dynamics of spermatogenesis and oogenesis in Eledone
cirrhosa and Eledone moschata (Cephalopoda: Octopoda)" (Comparative
Biochemistry and Physiology, 2004, Part B 139: 299-310) will be studied at
our Study Club of this week. Time: 21 April, 2006. Location: Conference Room
at the first floor of College of Life Sciences Building. The speaker is Chen-Yi Pan.

New international cooperation project approved (Post on Jan. 04, 2006 22:52) 
The international cooperation project "Genetic characterisation of the Croatian
sheep breed  based on microsatellite and mtDNA data" between China and Croatia
was just been approved by the two Governments. The project will focus on the
genetics characteristics as well as the sperm quality of Croatian sheep. Zhejiang
University of China and University of Zagreb of Croatia are involved in this bilateral
project. Dr. W.-X. Yang is the PI of Chinese team, and Dr. B. Mioč is the PI of
Croatian team. The project No. is 02-02.
