Research Interests
Research interests focus on oxidative stress including
the production of oxygen radicals, their deleterious effects and
biological defense mechanisms. Specific areas of study include the
effects of environmental tobacco smoke on workers, protection by
antioxidants, and the mechanism of action of several anti-cancer
agents.
