My scholarly interests include the following:

• In collaboration with Craig Heller at Stanford University, I have proposed hypotheses linking the function of sleep to brain energy metabolism, 和 linking the function of REM sleep to events taking place during nonREM sleep.
• In collaboration with Marcos Frank at University of Pennsylvania, I have proposed a range of possible cellular 和 molecular connections between sleep 和 synaptic plasticity.
• I am one author of a college general biology textbook for natural science majors, 由Cengage出版.

My past research in collaboration with students at St. Bonaventure University has included studies of:

• the effects of sleep deprivation on cellular energy metabolism in rats (in collaboration with researchers at Stanford University)
• the effects of oxidative stress on cellular energy metabolism 和 ADP ribose production in primary cultures of astrocytes (in collaboration with Dr. Raymond Swanson at University of California at San Francisco)
• changes in cellular energy metabolism in association with starvation-induced sexual reproduction in Tetrahymena thermophila 和 Schizosaccharomyces pombe.
• bioinformatic analysis of changes in mouse long non-coding  RNAs in recovery from heart failure

目前, I mentor students in bioinformatics projects, performing new analyses of publicly available data to answer diverse biological questions.
