Research Interests

  1. improvement in Ohio grape and wine quality, based on studies of grape and yeast speciation, cold resistance genes in grapes, natural yeasts on grapes, in the winery, and yeast population and chemical changes during spontaneous fermentation. The goal is to improve the quality of Ohio wines. Please consult Ohio's Enology Research Center.
  2. the cell and molecular biology of anaerobic protozoan parasites with emphasis on trichomonads, Giardia, Cryptosporidium and Hexamita. These protozoan parasites are used as models for basic research investigations with the overall goal of gaining insights into host-parasite interactions, detection, diagnosis, pathogenesis, chemotherapeutic implications.
