Biography
B.S. University of Massachusetts, 1984 Ph.D. Brandeis University, 1989
Research Interest
pursuing the generation of heuristic design rules for the construction of molecular structures of reduced hazard. By understanding the detailed mechanism of action of toxicity, it is possible to manipulate the properties regulating pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics in ways that reduce or eliminate the target biological endpoint.
