  • Genomic dissection of conserved transcriptional regulation in intestinal epithelial cells. 
  • Identification of mitochondrial cytochrome P450 induced in response to polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in the mummichog (Fundulus heteroclitus). 
  • Low level exposure to the flame retardant BDE-209 reduces thyroid hormone levels and disrupts thyroid signaling in fathead minnows. 
  • Origin, Specification, and Plasticity of the Great Vessels of the Heart. 
  • Resistance to teratogenesis by F1 and F2 embryos of PAH-adapted Fundulus heteroclitus is strongly inherited despite reduced recalcitrance of the AHR pathway.
