Research Areas
In general, the focus of research within the group is on developing computational
methods and related experimental techniques to study the effects of toxicants, drugs,
and other foreign chemicals on the body.
Several of the active research areas are listed below.
- Xenobiotic Metabolomics
- Computational and experimental methods for predicting the metabolite
inventory and pathways resulting from xenobiotic exposure.
- Carcinogenesis
- Research utilizing in vivo, in vitro, and in silico
techniques to better understand the complex phenomena involved in
chemically-induced carcinogenesis.
- Risk Assessment
- Research involving a combination of computational approaches and targeted experimentation
to understand and predict the risk associated with chemicals and chemical mixtures.
- Chemical Mixtures
- Research into the multifaceted toxicological interactions that result from exposure to
chemical mixtures.
