Biography

Jan Bogerd is an Assistant Professor at Utrecht University, focusing on endocrine functions and reproductive biology in zebrafish. His research investigates the mechanisms mediating the stimulatory effects of follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) on zebrafish spermatogenesis and the expression profiling of Sertoli and Leydig cell genes as FSH targets in adult zebrafish testis. Furthermore, he explores the antagonistic regulation of spermatogonial differentiation by factors such as Igf3 and Amh. His work encompasses structural modeling of G protein-coupled receptor (GpHR) extracellular domains and evolutionary aspects of relaxin receptors as therapeutic targets. Bogerd has contributed to several significant publications in the domains of endocrinology and pharmacology, enhancing the understanding of hormonal regulation in vertebrate reproduction.
