Mentor Areas
Research in my laboratory uses basic biochemical, molecular as well as complex in vivo methodology within the field of coagulation with two goals: (1) to advance our understanding of molecular mechanisms involved in pro- and anti-coagulant reactions; (2) translational research for the treatment of coagulation defects and specifically hemophilia, using protein or gene therapy approaches.
Description:
We use gene-transfer and protein-based methods to achieve our research goals so the projects in the laboratory are basic and translational in nature. Prospective students will be exposed to a variety of techniques ranging from basic molecular biology to protein purification and use of viral vectors to effect long-term gene expression in animal models.
