About the Author
JORGE R. PASQUALINI is Director of the Hormones and Cancer Research Unit at the Institut de Puériculture of Paris. Professor Pasqualini received his Ph.D. in biology from the University of Buenos Aires, Argentina, and a D.Sc. degree in Endocrinology from the University of Paris, France. He has published more than 600 original papers and is the founder and Editor-in-Chief of The Journal of Steroid Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, which is considered to be one of the leading international scientific journals in the field. Professor Pasqualini has worked in varying areas of endocrinology and reproduction, and in recent years found new aspects of the production, control, and biological effect of estrogens, anti-estrogens, and progestins in human breast and endometrial cancers, with potential clinical applications in pre- and postmenopausal patients.
