She obtained her MD from New York University School of Medicine followed by residency training in Obstetrics and Gynecology and a fellowship in Reproductive Endocrinology and Infertility, both at the University of Pennsylvania. Following her training she completed the Reproductive Scientist Development Program. Her laboratory focuses on examining the effects of the peri-implantation environment and assisted reproductive technologies (ART) on the developing embryo and offspring using a mouse model. Her current project examines the effects of ART on angiogenesis and vasculogenesis that may lead to disorders of placentation and the adverse outcomes associated with IVF/ART.
