Research Interests Critical care of polytrauma patients, troponin as a biomarker in traumatic myocarditis, the application of Continuous Renal Replacement Therapy (dialysis) for companion animals with acute kidney failure, advanced therapeutic approaches to immune mediated hemolytic anemia, and
novel laboratory assessment of coagulopathies (including thromboelastography and platelet aggregometry).
A team led by the Department of Energy's Oak Ridge National
Laboratory has identified a
novel microbial process that can break down toxic methylmercury in the environment, a fundamental scientific discovery that could potentially reduce mercury toxicity levels and support health and risk
assessments.
