Research Focus and Special Interests
Our research focuses on the cellular and molecular biology of endometriosis, embryonic implantation and preeclampsia. We have established unique cell culture models to evaluate the roles of nuclear receptors and cytokines in the proliferation and vascularization of reproductive tissues. These insights have led to the identification of novel therapeutic targets and potential medications.
