C. Yan Cheng Ph.D. is a senior scientist at the Population Council’s Center for Biomedical Research, New York, affiliated with the Council's Reproductive Health program, where his research focuses on developing new male contraceptive methods through a better understanding of male fertility and infertility, and on the biology of the blood-testis barrier and the mechanism by which environmental toxicants induce testicular injury. He serves as an ad-hoc reviewer of grant proposals submitted to the National Institutes of Health’s Cellular, Molecular and Integrative Reproduction Study Section and the Endocrinology, Metabolism, Nutrition and Reproductive Sciences Study Section. He holds a Ph.D. in biochemistry and cell biology from the University of Newcastle, New South Wales, Australia, after an undergraduate degree from the Chinese University of Hong Kong.

Reviews for Spermatogenesis: Biology and Clinical Implications

"""This is a remarkable addition to the field of spermatogenesis, furthering our understanding of meiosis and new developments in the conversion of early spermatocytes to haploid spermatids, a process clinically relevant to the treatment of nonobstructive azoospermia. It uniquely addresses the contemporary challenges of environmental spermatotoxins."" Irvin H Hirsch, MD (Thomas Jefferson University)"
