RESEARCH INTERESTS
:

Since 2013, I have been Associate Dean for the College of Medicine & Life Sciences (UT-COM&LS) Graduate Programs. The Associate Dean position requires me to be involved with all of the COM&LS graduate programs, including the MD/PhD dual degree program, all of the PhD and MSBS Biomedical Science Program training tracks, MSBS-Medical Science for premedical students, MSBS-Medical Physics, MSBS-Oral Biology for Dentistry residents, MSBS-Orthopedic Sciences, MSBS-Human Donation Sciences, MSBS-Physician Assistant studies, and MSBS-Assistant in Pathology. Several of the above graduate degrees are in clinical areas of study, requiring much different training than for a research career, however, all of the clinical programs are very well organized by each Program Director. The majority of my time is spent with the Biomedical Science Program research training tracks. Ìý
