Lupine-inducedcrooked calf
Goat surgery:cleft palate repair  **Research Interests:** The effects of poisonous plants and natural toxins on reproduction in livestock including embryonic and fetal growth and development.  **Significant Accomplishments:** Determine that locoweeds cause reproductive dysfunction in livestock and characterized the effects in sheep and cattle.
Evaluated alkaloids from larkspur in mouse bioassays and determined structure activity relationship.
Developed a Spanish goat model to determine the mechanism of action of lupine-induced "crooked calf syndrome" in cattle, evaluated the toxicity of 10 alkaloid teratogens and their structure activity relationship.
Callaborate with Lahey Clinic Medical Center on the biomedical application of the goat model to improve treatment of cleft palate in children.
