Supplement 6:S46-8 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 |
