Biography
My research is devoted to the study of the early development of the embryonic head, specifically how the key components of the head interface with one another as they develop in tandem in the womb. This area of research provides important insight into how birth defects may develop. I am interested in the cellular and molecular cues that direct the development of each of these components and use comparative approaches to understand their evolution. I am also currently Editor-in-Chief of the Journal of Anatomy and sit on the editorial board for EvoDevo.
