STATEMENT OF RESEARCH INTERESTS
The lab is interested in organogenesis with a focus on heart development. We have three areas of research:

Interactions between the endocardium and myocardium during heart tube formation.

Cardiac maturation throughout fish life.

Epicardial formation and maturation.
