I am also actively committed to the training of junior faculty, clinical and research fellows, a commitment that I will continue to follow at UB. Clinically, I am interested in the genetics of mitochondrial diseases, genetic syndromes with congenital cardiac defects, newborn screening, and prenatal screening and diagnosis. In addition, as the Chief of Genetics, I will help recruit additional experts in the field and attract new trainees to build up the research and clinical genetics environment at UB. My goal is to advance both UB and Oishei Children’s Hospital by bringing my cutting-edge research program and personnel from my previous institute, along with my 25 years of experience in clinical genetics. Previously, I served for eight years as Professor in Human Genetics, Director of the Program of Mitochondrial Medicine and Director of the Molecular Diagnostic laboratory at Cincinnati Children‘s Hospital Medical Center. Recently, I have been recruited to be the Chief of Genetics for Pediatrics at SUNY Buffalo, Director of Genetics & Metabolism at Oishei Children’s Hospital and Program Director of Clinical Cancer Genetics at Great Lakes Cancer Center. My focus is on the integration of research, molecular testing and clinical service to improve the care of patients. I am a physician-scientist with substantial experience in translational research and mitochondrial medicine.
