Summary
- I am a physician scientist with appointments in the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology and the Department of Molecular and Human Genetics at Baylor College of Medicine (BCM) and have directed projects focused on developmental and reproductive epigenetics and the characterization of human genetic disorders for over 15 years, including the generation and analysis of mouse models, mutation identification for human genetic disorders, high-throughput array approaches and functional assays for characterization of human disease genes. my laboratory discovered that PORCN is the gene for Goltz syndrome. I am also pursuing active research on the clinical characterization and search for the genetic defect that causes a rare, but devastating neurodevelopmental disorder, Aicardi syndrome. I am regularly involved with the characterization of unknown prenatal phenotypes or the characterization of new prenatal manifestations of known genetic disorders.
