Abstract:
A women in science symposium was held at the combined 20th International Union for Pure and Applied Biophysics (IUPAB) Congress, 45th Annual Brazilian Biophysical Society (SBBf) Meeting and 50th Annual Brazilian Society for Biochemistry and Molecular Biology (SBBq) Meeting. There were five excellent speakers from prominent scientist from around the globe that included Frances Separovic (University of Melbourne, Australia), Pimchai Chaiyen (Vidyasirimedhi Institute of Science and Technology (VISTEC), Thailand), Lauren Arendse (University of Cape Town, South Africa), Milagros Medina (University of Zaragoza, Spain) and Carla Mattos (Northeastern University, USA). Each speaker was asked to reflect on their career and challenges they overcome to attain professional success. What followed was a fascinating and thought-provoking exposé on the careers of these five incredibly talented and strong women.

Hormonal Regulation of the Menstrual Cycle
At puberty, GnRH begins a pulsatile release pattern, which triggers the anterior pituitary gland to secrete follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) and luteinizing hormone (LH). The frequency and amplitude of GnRH pulses vary across the menstrual cycle, with faster pulses favoring LH release and slower pulses favoring FSH...
