Research/Areas of Interest
Research at the intersection of reproductive biology and tissue engineering to understand the immune-endocrine mechanisms driving uterine reproductive health and disease. We are particularly interested in understanding how inflammation negatively, and positively, impacts reproductive function across the lifespan. Our lab builds miniature uterine tissues using tissue engineering approaches and human tissues to study tissue regeneration, endometriosis, infertility, reproductive aging (i.e., menopause) and tissue-tissue crosstalk.
