Research Focus

My research interests are in translational approaches to biomedical research. What this really means is we are translating research discoveries into commercial products. These products can be, for example, technologies that will facilitate biomedical research such as new tools or novel genes that could be targeted for discovering new drugs to treat disease. My background in the biotechnology industry helped form this interest of course and also provides a broad experience base for this work. In our current research we create and utilize DNA microarrays (the image you see on this page) for gene discovery and validation for potential therapeutic drug discovery targets. This is a long term goal, particularly for multigenic disease. The specific disease areas of interest are osteoporosis, bone fracture healing and atrial fibrillation. In our ABL (Applied Bioscience Laboratory) we use molecular and cell biology tools for the same goal. We collaborate with academic and industry scientists on projects to facilitate translational of research.
