Jerilynn C. Prior

I have been a professor at the University of British Columbia since 1994.
I founded the Centre for Menstrual Cycle and Ovulation Research in 2002 that actively researches women's menstrual cycles and especially ovulation and shares that information with women and healthcare providers worldwide through www.cemcor.ca that garners 3,500 to 7,000 page-views a day from > 180 countries.
I am also the Centre Director of the BC Centre of the Canadian Multicentre Osteoporosis Study (www.camos.com) and have been since 1995--we have population-based data on over 1100 men and woman ages 16-80+.
I believe that silent ovulatory disturbances occurring within clinically normal menstrual cycles are importantly related to women's later life osteoporotic fracture, early post-menopausal heart attack and breast and endometrial cancers.
