In the fall 1999 the Rectors of Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences and Uppsala University established the Centre for Reproductive Biology in Uppsala (CRU) as a joint body between the two universities. The inauguration of CRU was held November 4, 1999 by arranging the seminar Reproduction and Our Environment. 
CRU consists of a network of scientist working in the field of reproductive biology and CRU’s main function is to increase the knowledge about reproduction in animals and humans by applying a more comprehensive view on reproductive biology. To arrange conferences, seminars, workshops and postgraduate training activities are key components in this work as seen below. 

CRU works towards:

• increasing the knowledge about reproduction among animals and humans by applying a more comprehensive view on reproductive biology.
• a co-ordination of ongoing activities with the aim to strengthening the disciplines’ position in international research,
• development and implementation of postgraduate courses, seminars and symposia,
• formulation and implementation of larger interdisciplinary research projects,
• a co-ordination of development of new research techniques,
• an efficient use of analytic equipment and other physical resources at the two universities,
• an increased mobility of teachers and other human resources between the universities.
