Post navigation

Neuroscientist, developmental biologist. I primarily focus on autism and connective tissue disorders, but am fascinated by all things biology. Science is my work, my passion, and my hobby. I relish reading history, especially as it relates to the development of the sciences. I am also a hobby-paleontologist, enjoy antique collecting and a bit of photography, love a good strong black tea, knitting, and spending time with my family (both the human and furry varieties).
