A.V. Nalbandov Memorial Lectures

Andrew V. Nalbandov (1912-1986) served the University of Illinois from 1940-1977. He joined the Department of Animal Science as an instructor in Genetics. At the time of his retirement he was professor of Animal Physiology, Physiology, and Zoology.

"Andy," as he was known to friends and colleagues, made many significant contributions to the field of reproductive biology. These contributions justly earned him leadership positions in the scientific community and numerous awards. Among them were the D.Sc. honoris causa form the Technical University of Munich, The Marshall Medal from the Society for the Study of Fertility in Great Britain, the Distinguished Leadership Award in Endocrinology from the Endocrine Society, and the Hartman Award from the Society for the Study of Reproduction.

In recognition and appreciation of Andy's many scientific and personal contributions, the "A. V. Nalbandov Memorial Lectureship" has been created by his friends and associates. It provides for an annual lecture by a distinguished reproductive biologist.
