Biography and Research Interest
I am intersted in the physiological effects of chronic exposure to endocrine disrupting chemicals on the reproductive success of fishes. Specifically, I am studying the mechanisms by which 2,3,7,8-TCDD alters female reproductive function, using zebrafish as a model organ system.
