Hypothalamic Control of the Pituitary‐Gonadal Axis in Higher Primates: Key Advances over the Last Two Decades

This review provides a brief historical background to the foundation of primate reproductive neuroendocrinology that was laid by Ernst Knobil during the late 1960s and early 1970s. This is followed by a discussion of studies conducted over the last two decades that I view as having contributed to the current understanding of the field of primate reproductive neuroendocrinology. The review concludes with a short summary of key questions that remain to be addressed.
