Abstract
While assisted reproductive technologies (ART) have had an enormous impact on the breeding and understanding of reproduction in domestic and laboratory species as well as humans, progress is poor in many companion animals, non-domestic and endangered species (CANDES). The first draft program for this meeting was composed in April 2006 when members of the CANDES Parent Committee of the IETS (www.omahazoo.com/IETS/CANDEShomepage.htm) coined the idea of holding workshops to inform IETS members of realistic expectations when extrapolating ART from livestock and humans to CANDES. As co-chairs of the Research and Technology subcommittees, we and our colleagues, Rebecca Krisher and Monique Paris, are proud to deliver the first of these workshops entitled "Implementation of Artificial Insemination in CANDES".
