Biography and Research Interest
EDUCATION
A. Baccalaureate Degree: not awarded in German system. Finished pre-med studies at Albert Ludwigs University Medical School, Freiburg in 7/1982
B. Advanced Degrees: 12/1987, Albert Ludwigs University Medical School, Freiburg, MD; 12/1992, Université Paris VII, PhD in immunology
C. Pediatric internship, 7/1993-6/1994, Children's Hospital, Boston
Junior Assistant Resident in Pediatrics, 7/1994-6/1995, Children's Hospital, Boston
Clinical Fellow in Pediatric Hematology/Oncology, 7/1995-6/1998, Children's Hospital/DFCI, Boston
D. Specialty and Sub-specialty Board Certifications:
Pediatrics: 1998
Pediatric Hematology/Oncology: 2000
E. Postdoctoral (Ph.D.) Fellowships: through 6/2004, Children's Hospital,
Boston, laboratory of Len Zon, funded through K08
PROFESSIONAL EXPERIENCE
7/1998-6/2004: Pediatric Hematology/Oncology
Attending Physician for inpatient and outpatient services at Children's Hospital and DFCI, Boston
Instructor in Pediatrics, Harvard Medical School
Since 7/2004: Assistant Professor in Pediatrics, University of Utah
Adjunct Assistant Professor in Oncologic Sciences
RESEARCH INTERESTS
My lab is interested in modeling human diseases of the immune system in zebrafish. These diseases include immunodeficiency (such as DiGeorge syndrome and SCID), autoimmunity and leukemia.
We are also involved in exploring the innate immune system using a transgenic approach in zebrafish.
