Biography

Ph. D., Chemical Engineering: Sept. 1993 The Johns Hopkins University - Baltimore, MD B.E., Chemical Engineering: May 1987 C.U.N.Y. The City College - New York, NY A.S., Engineering Science: May 1984 S.U.N.Y. Farmingdale - Farmingdale, NY

Research Interest

The research involves skin-chemical interactions and photo-reactivity of psoralen, a natural chemical found in citrus fruits, with DNA, RNA, proteins, nucleic acids and amino acids. The research area is generally referred to as photochemistry/photobiology or photo-medicine which includes photo-chemotherapy, photo-chemoprotection, and photo-chemoinactivation. In my research group, we investigate a photo-chemotherapy tool known as PUVA (Psoralen-UVA light). PUVA is an important therapeutic tool in treating dermatological ailments such as psoriasis and vitiligo
