Academic Interests
To understand how mitochondrial homeostasis functionally and structurally interacts with iron metabolism to couple iron utilization with the needs of individual cells.
Understand how iron functions as an effector of cellular development, particularly in tissues that rely heavily on iron/heme such as hepatic and erythroid cells.
Unravel how pregnant mammals adapt erythroid development and iron metabolism for the needs of a pregnancy.
