How do I use Anatomy Everyday? I teach Gross Anatomy and Microscopic Anatomy among other courses. I teach both graduate (Doctor of Veterinary Medicine) and undergraduate (Animal Science) students. Our labs entail dissection of large and small domestic animal species. Prior to my current position at the University of Minnesota, I taught Human Anatomy and Physiology in various institutions.
My basic research interest is in bone physiology. I take a biomedically-driven approach to skeletal biology that is founded within evolutionary theory. My central research question is whether or how prenatal exposures predispose an offspring to diseases of aging like osteoporosis.
Fan fact: I am currently a proud mother of an 18 months old son!
