Selective Estrogen Receptor Modulators (SERMs) : Proceedings of a April 26-28, 2000 Conference

This volume examines basic and clinical findings on the role played by the oestrogen receptor (ER) and its modulation in multiple physiologic systems.

The authors examine the potential of selective modification of ER actions for preventing chronic diseases and promoting healthy ageing.

Research gaps and potential agendas for NIH research of ER action are identified, and related intervention strategies to extend the beneficial clinical outcomes are explored.
