In addition to mapping genes for deafness, I am also studying the effect that the unique mating structure of the deaf community has on the incidence of various forms of deafness. Lastly, I am also involved in genomic medicine and trying to integrate it into the private primary care setting.

Peritoneal and tumor-associated macrophages and their precursors, monocytes in the circulation, represent and exhibit different levels of local and systemic immune suppression in the host. We have found that transcripition factors NFkB, STAT1 and STAT3 are differentially expressed in these cells, resulting in altered cell signaling pathways and cytokine gene expression patterns."
