Research interests
We study the functional genomics and epigenetics in embryonic and placental development. Research is focussed on investigating genes involved in developmental processes occurring in the first trimester of pregnancy. Events leading to identical twinning or dysfunctional placentation causing pre-eclampsia and intra-uterine growth restriction are simulated to provide key insight into the origins of these events.
