Research Statement

As Director of the Center for Genomics Research (CGR), I facilitate the projects of other researchers at WSU as well as external investigators who wish to collaborate or contract with the CGR. These projects have included topics in neuroscience, toxicology, and molecular biology. Current projects include the genetics of motion sickness, the body's response to physical training, epigenetic modification of RNA, alternative splicing in melanoma, and single-cell quantification of gene expression in neurons. Please contact CGR if you are interested in collaborative work involving any topics in genomics.
