Biography

I am a space life science researcher who also leads medical and graduate education at Texas A&M.

I have worked with and have been funded by NASA and the NSBRI (precursor to TRISH). I focus on factors that impact the lymphatic systems since it sits at a critical point between the vascular physiological and immunological systems.
