Currently Involved In:
I have diverse research interests that reflect my areas of clinical responsibility. As the division director of Genitourinary pathology my interests are principally in translational research in the prostate, bladder and kidneys and providing support to basic science research within the department of Urology, one of the leading academic Urology departments in the Southeastern U.S.
As an attending hematopathologist, I am interested in developing new diagnostic techniques for flow cytometry and in utilizing flow cytometry to aid in the diagnosis of hematolymphoid neoplasia.
