Work encompasses Cell lineage, Neuronal Migration, Axonal Targeting, Craniofacial development and Understanding mutations identified in patients with Kallmann Syndrome. Projects focus on migration of GnRH cells, development of olfactory ensheathing cells and olfactory axon outgrowth during development of the craniofacial region. Current projects examine: 1) lineage of the GnRH cells, 2) axon targeting, 3) biology of genes identified in patients with delayed puberty and anosmia, and 4) development of the craniofacial region.
