I have been at JSU for 28 years. My professional training was in Cell Biology, and I have been teaching Cell Biology and Animal Developmental Biology since I started here. My primary research interest is the interactions between histones (nuclear proteins that organize DNA and regulate transcription) with mitochondria, especially in plant and yeast cells.
