Research Interests:
My laboratory seeks to identify genes that promote accumulation of body fat. We study humans, mice, and C. elegans. We use a variety of techniques, including genetic mapping, mRNA expr

Teaching Interests:


I teach medical students about the biological basis of obesity. Starting winter 2000 I will teach a freshman seminar on "Issues in body weight regulation." Starting fall 2000 I will teach an
