    Collapse Overview 
    Collapse overview
    I have been doing biomedical research using the traditional as well as the state-of-the-art techniques for the nucleic acid and protein work including tissue culture for mammalian cells. Over the years I have trained several undergraduate students and technicians in my laboratory. In addition to directing the Protein and Nucleic Acid Core Facility, I also participate in collaborative projects. My current research focuses on glycobiology and its dynamic relationship to capillary endothelial cell proliferation and differentiation, i.e., angiogenesis during breast cancer progression. I have almost 35 years of experience working in the area of cell and molecular biology.

    PMC Citations indicate the number of times the publication was cited by articles in PubMed Central, and the Altmetric score represents citations in news articles and social media. (Note that publications are often cited in additional ways that are not shown here.) Fields are based on how the National Library of Medicine (NLM) classifies the publication's journal and might not represent the specific topic of the publication. Translation tags are based on the publication type and the MeSH terms NLM assigns to the publication. Some publications (especially newer ones and publications not in PubMed) might not yet be assigned Field or Translation tags.) Click a Field or Translation tag to filter the publications.
