Dear Viewer:
Thank
you for taking the time to log onto my web site. The links below will
take you to any specific information direction.
My research interests are mainly centered on
the molecular biological properties of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) and
the applied application of this knowledge using the tools of biotechnology,
bioinformatics and genetic engineering. My research focus is from a genomic
perspective. Model systems that I have worked on include, humans, rat,
mouse, Limulus polyphemus (horseshoe crabs), oysters, herbal plants, bacteria
and bacteriophage T7/P1.
My advice to students is,“to be balanced
in your approach to life, to work hard, take calculated risks, and become
an expert in at least one career skill. Life is the most complicated event
that has ever occurred on the planet Earth. DNA is the longest chemical
polymer and most information rich molecule in the entire known universe!
Therefore, the study of life on earth (biology) and the flow of information
throughout biological space (bioinformatics) are of the most interesting
and important topics for human beings to study. Life is a genetic
privilege. Learn to enjoy it”!
Thanx!
JP.
