Biography and Research Interest
Our lab is currently interested in investigating the role of copper in nutrition and early development of the zebrafish embryo. We utilize embryology, genetics, cellular and molecular biology to investigate these questions.
I am currently investigating the role of peptidylglycine alpha-amidating monooxygenase (PAM), a cuproenzyme, in early zebrafish development.
