I am trained as a cell biologist with a particular focus on developmental biology. I teach developmental biology courses at the undergraduate (300) and masters (500) level, in addition to 100 and 200 level courses in cell and molecular biology. In my lab, we use zebrafish as a model system to study embryonic development and planarian flatworms to study tissue regeneration.
