Research Interests

My role in the lab includes Directing Clinical Chemistry, Special Chemistry and Immunology divisions, whichincludes Clinical Toxicology, Immunoassay, Immunology, Serology, Infectious disease, Allergy and Automated Chemistry sections. My interests include the development and validation of new state-of-art technologies for better patient care; clinical outcomes assessment studies for quality assurance and appropriate test utilization. My research interests are in clinical chemistry, reproductive biology, endocrine-immune interactions and regulations and point of care testing.

Bibliographic

selected publications

Publications listed below are automatically derived from MEDLINE/PubMed and other sources, which might result in incorrect or missing publications. Faculty can login to make corrections and additions.

PMC Citations indicate the number of times the publication was cited by articles in PubMed Central, and the Altmetric score represents citations in news articles and social media. (Note that publications are often cited in additional ways that are not shown here.) Fields are based on how the National Library of Medicine (NLM) classifies the publication's journal and might not represent the specific topic of the publication. Translation tags are based on the publication type and the MeSH terms NLM assigns to the publication. Some publications (especially newer ones and publications not in PubMed) might not yet be assigned Field or Translation tags.) Click a Field or Translation tag to filter the publications.
