Rodolfo Rey, MD, PhD
Rodolfo Rey is a Medical Doctor from the National University of Rosario and obtained a PhD from the University of Buenos Aires, Argentina, and a Master's degree in Endocrinology and Cell Interactions from the University of Paris XI, France. He is a specialist in Genetics (Argentine Society of Genetics) and Andrology (Argentine Society of Andrology), and trained in Paediatrics and Paediatric Endocrinology at the Ricardo Gutiérrez Children's Hospital in Buenos Aires. Dr Rey trained as a postdoctoral fellow in Paris, at the INSERM Unit directed by Dr Nathalie Josso, working on the physiology and genetics of anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH). Since 1998, he has been a Researcher of CONICET (National Research Council of Argentina), currently a Senior Researcher and Director of CEDIE (Centre for Endocrinological Research), Buenos Aires Children’s Hospital. He is also Professor of Histology, Embryology, Cell Biology, and Genetics at the Faculty of Medicine of the University of Buenos Aires.
Throughout his career as a researcher in the area of experimental and clinically applied Endocrinology, his translational approach has been a defining characteristic. Questions arising from human observations regarding the morphological and functional changes of the hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal axis formed the basis for observational studies in humans and experimental studies in primate and rodent models. He was part of the group that developed and patented in Europe the first assay for determining AMH in bodily fluids, now commercially available worldwide. Using AMH as a biomarker, he has led a group that characterised numerous cases of hypogonadism from fetal life to puberty.
