Areas of expertise:

My research focuses on how the environment, including our diets and the drugs and toxins we are exposed to, interacts with our genes to cause growth disorders and birth defects in children. Two to four percent of children are born with birth defects. In two thirds of these cases, the causes are unknown. Epigenetics, broadly defined as heritable “tags” or modifications to our genes that modulate gene expression, has been shown to play a key role in normal development in addition to genes. Epigenetic information in our genomes can help us adapt to new environments, yet when abnormal, it can contribute to disease. My laboratory uses mouse and clinical studies to determine the role of epigenetics and the environment in causing birth defects associated with the use of assisted reproductive technologies as well as the father’s exposure to drugs and chemicals.

Areas of expertise:

The research activities of my group are aimed at the identification of novel genes responsible for recurrent molar pregnancies (pregnancies with no embryos) and miscarriages and the elucidation of the functional roles of the identified genes in these pathologies. This will allow offering the patients new DNA diagnostic tests directed to identify their exact molecular defect and consequently appropriate genetic counseling and assisted reproductive technologies services directed to overcome their exact molecular defects.
