Research Interests
My research interests are focused on interfacing enzymology and systems biology in the area of fat and glucose metabolism. Overall, I am interested in combining knowledge of enzyme kinetics and mechanism with knowledge of metabolic pathways to better understand metabolic regulation and control in normal and disease states.
