Education
Bachelor of Science: Indiana University Bloomington, IN, 1990 (Biochemistry, Minor in Biology)
Post Doctoral Fellowship: University of Illinois Urbana, IL, 1997 ("The domain structure of apolipoprotein A-1")
Doctorate: The Medical College of Pennsylvania (Drexel University) Philadelphia, PA, 1994 (BioChemistry, "High density lipoprotein composition and cellular cholesterol efflux")
Research and Practice Interests
The overall aim of the lab is to understand the mechanisms by which the body protects itself from heart disease. We use mutagenesis and spectroscopic techniques to study the structure/function relationships of the proteins that comprise high density lipoproteins.
