This volume arose from an International Congress held in Bordeaux during 1986 and organised jointly by the Comparative Endocrinology Group of the Society for Experimental Biology, Laboratoire de Neurobiologie, Universite de Bordeaux I and Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique (CNRS).
The chapters which follow have been prepared by the invited seminar series speakers attending that meeting, and are designed as broad overviews of their particular specialities.
For the original meeting in Bordeaux we particularly extend warm and grateful thanks to our friend and colleague Professor Adrien Giradie and his collaborators in the Neurobiology Laboratory, Bordeaux, without whom the symposium could not have taken place, and this volume would not have been produced.
The symposium also benefited from the support of the following organisations: Society for Experimental Biology, UK; Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique, France; Direction de la Cooperation et des Relations Internationales du Minitere de l'Education Nationale, France; Universite de Bordeaux 1; Beckman; Bioblock Scientific; Bordeaux Chimie-Cofralab; Etablissements Laurent; Imperial Chemical Industries pic. (Plant Protection, Jealot's Hill, UK); Laboratory Data Control; Mairie de Bordeaux; Mairie de Gradignan; Office du Tourisme de Bordeaux; Peninsula Laboratories Europe; Pfizer Research Ltd.; Poly-Labo; Rohm Haas Chemical Co; Shell Research Ltd.; Sofranie-Mettler; Wild Leitz France.
