Biography

RESEARCH FOCUS

Birth Defects

-use mouse models to understand the complex gene-nutrient-environment interactions that contribute to birth defects, with a specific focus on neural tube defects (NTDs)

-investigate the role of pharmaceutical and environmental exposures during pregnancy that increase risk for birth defects, determine the underlying mechanisms involved, and develop strategies for prevention

Endometriosis

-use an intact, immunocompetent, minimally invasive (laparoscopic) mouse model of endometriosis to study the role of the G protein-coupled estrogen receptor (GPER) in endometriosis and endometriosis-associated ovarian cancer
