Special Interests
Genetic (QTL, quantitative trait locus) analysis of complex traits using mouse models of human disease; current research projects involve genetic analysis of pulmonary, cardiovascular, and eye diseases.
A focus on complex traits of the lung, including genes controlling susceptibility or resistance to acute lung injury, respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) infection, and interstitial lung diseases.
Primary focus on mouse models of acute lung injury, especially survival from acute lung injury induced by inhalation of agents (e.g., hyperoxia, ozone, nickel sulfate aerosol).
Use of additional strategies (e.g., microarrays, breeding methods) to identify candidate and positional candidate genes.
