Research

My research interests are in the areas of pharmacokinetic modeling, toxicology, and chemical risk assessment. The focus of my work is on the use of tissue dosimetry and mode-of-action information in chemical safety and risk assessment and the application of physiologically based pharmacokinetic modeling to risk assessment and the interpretation of human biomonitoring data.
