There is no question that one of the major causes of morbidity in women is uterine leiomyomas. In this issue Dr. Gregory Christman has enlisted some of the world's best investigators of this disorder.
Dr. Christman received a B.S. degree from the University of Wisconsin-Stevens Point and then attended the University of Wisconsin Medical School and completed a residency in Obstetrics and Gynecology. He then went to Ann Arbor and spent 2 years as a Postdoctoral Fellow in the University of Michigan Reproductive Science Program. Greg then completed a fellowship in Reproductive Endocrinology and Fertility at the University of North Carolina Medical School in Chapel Hill.
After his fellowship, he returned in 1992 to the University of Michigan, where he is currently an Associate Professor in the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology and Associate Research Scientist, Reproductive Sciences Program. He is also Director of the ART program.
In his short time as a faculty member at the University of Michigan, he has been successful in obtaining competitive research grants, published some 30 peer-reviewed manuscripts, is a member of numerous medical societies, and received several awards. He has been recognized both nationally and internationally for his research.
One specific area in which Dr. Christman has focused his research and interest is the biology and treatment of uterine leiomyomas. Greg has recruited an exciting, enthusiastic group of clinical research investigators to address problems and gain new insights into the treatment of leiomyomas. In summary, I believe this issue of Seminars in Reproductive Medicine on Uterine Leiomyomas: Options and Choices will benefit and update investigators and clinicians dealing with this disorder.
