The scientist has contributed to a range of topics primarily related to prenatal screening and diagnostics, genomic variations and chromosomal abnormalities, as well as effects and risks of endocrine-disrupting chemicals. Other notable areas of research include renal and related cancers, chromosomal and genetic variations, genetics and neurodevelopmental disorders, and autism spectrum disorder research.

Their recent publications include the following:

  • Failure to recombine is a common feature of human oogenesis, 2020, The American Journal of Human Genetics
  • Missed connections: recombination and human aneuploidy, 2021, Prenatal Diagnosis
  • Effect of Brief Maternal Exposure to Bisphenol A on the Fetal Female Germline in a Mouse Model, 2025, Environmental Health Perspectives
  • Stephen T. Warren, Ph.D. (1953-2021): A remembrance, 2022, The American Journal of Human Genetics

Collaborations with frequent coauthors have included Patricia A. Hunt, Heather Maylor-Hagen, Anna Wood, Jennifer R. Gruhn, and Eva R. Hoffmann.

Their work is frequently published in venues such as The American Journal of Human Genetics, Prenatal Diagnosis, and Environmental Health Perspectives.

Related Online Degrees & Career Pathways

Studying Genetics opens doors to many dynamic careers and educational paths in healthcare and research. For those interested in nursing, alternative online routes are available. The rn to bsn with no clinicals option offers registered nurses a convenient way to advance their qualifications without on-site clinical requirements.

If you’re aiming for leadership roles in nursing, a doctoral program may be the next step. The 1 year dnp program online and other dnp degree options provide flexible and accelerated paths, ideal for working professionals seeking advanced clinical or administrative positions.

For those who prefer a shorter route into healthcare, there are accelerated medical assistant programs. These fast-track programs get you career-ready in only a few weeks, which can be a perfect complement to a scientific background in Genetics.

Whichever path you choose, online degrees offer flexibility and the chance to customize your study to fit your ambitions in Genetics and related fields.
