Jeremy Smith
Monash University, Victoria
Dr Jeremy Smith began his research career at The University of Western Australia, he then work as a post-doctoral researcher at the University of Washington. Here, Jeremy worked extensively on kisspeptin, a novel neuropeptide, vital in the control of GnRH secretion and reproductive function. Jeremy’s work represents an exciting new field of neuroendocrinology. The recent discovery of mice and humans lacking the kisspeptin receptor and their infertile phenotype has sparked scientists to explore the full actions of this peptide. Jeremy’s research hopes to provide significant advancement to our knowledge of kisspeptin and its critical role in governing fertility.
