Medical science has always been my first love and my former research interests have
                                                      included analyzing how nitric oxide can regulate the formation of endothelical cell
                                                      re-growth following balloon angioplasty, the role of adaptor molecules plays in T-cell
                                                      receptor signaling, and the pharmacokinetic properties of extended release forms of
                                                      thyroid hormone and Adderall.
                                                   
                                                   I am now immersed in the teaching of Anatomy and Physiology.  This is very exciting
                                                      because the need to train health science professionals is critical because of the
                                                      health care shortage. I manage the A&P teaching labs and work to develop lab teaching
                                                      materials.
