Research Profile

Research focuses on processes of DNA replication, recombination and cell division in E. coli. In particular, how these processes are coordinated. He uses the power of genetics to look for connections between replication and recombination. He uses molecular biology to engineer the chromosome both physically and genetically to test models for how replication forks collapse and get restarted. He uses the Green Fluorescent Protein to monitor where in the cell these processes occur. Lastly, he has initiated some genomic approaches to look at global gene expression in the mutants of the Replication Restart Proteins.

Research Profile

Research interests in the fuel injection process, a critical part of nearly all liquid-fueled engines, is one of the most complex and sensitive parts of engine design. The quality of the fuel/air mixing determines whether an engine runs relatively cleanly or emits unacceptable amounts of pollution. Focus on optimizing the fuel injection process to develop strategies to run engines more efficiently with lower emissions.
