Biography

Professional Background

I obtained by undergraduate degree at Nazareth College in Rochester, NY in 1992 with a degree in Biochemistry. As an undergraduate I studied protein expression in Medaka fish. I obtained my PhD from the Department of Microbiology and Immunology at the University of Rochester in 1997. I studied the origins of replication of Human Herpesviruses 6 and 7 under the mentorship of Stephen Dewhurst, PhD. I then joined the Department of Medicine at the University of Rochester Medical Center where worked for 20 studying the effects of drug resistance mutations on HIV-1 replication. I am currently the Director of Research Services at the Clinical and Translational Science Institute.

Research

As the Director of Research Services in the Clinical and Translational Science Institute, my research looks at way to improve the administration of research including: 1) the registration and results reporting of institutional research studies in the public domain, 2) how institutions can help research teams recruit participants into research studies and 3) how best to create and manage institutional research registries.
