Career	      I am seeking a permanent position where my research
Objective     talents can be applied to rewarding projects with
	      practical applications.

Education     PhD in Physiology:
	      The University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center at
	      Dallas, Texas
	      August 1985 to June 1989
	      Relevant courses:  biochemistry, molecular biology, cell
	      biology, histology, neurophysiology, physiology, endo-
	      crinology, and computer science.

	      BS in Biology:
	      Texas A&M University, College Station, Texas
	      August 1982 to June 1985
	      Relevant courses: biology, cell biology, immunology, 
	      microbiology, physiology, comparative endocrinology,
	      organic chemistry, biochemistry, statistics, and quality
	      control.

Previous      Application of various in vitro and in vivo models of 
Research      endocrine function to examine the hypothalamic control of
Focus	      reproductive hormone secretion from the pituitary.

Assay Skills  Extensive experience with radioimmunoassay (including
	      iodination, trouble shooting, and data reduction) of 
	      several peptides.  Examination of secretion from individ-
	      ual cells employing the reverse hemolytic plaque assay.
	      Application of cell cultures for the bioassay of putative
	      endocrine regulatory factors.

Animal	      Proficient in a variety of surgical procedures including
Surgeries     third cerebroventricular cannulation, adrenalectomy, cas-
	      tration, and blood vessel cannulation of rats, as well as
	      experience with blood vessel cannulation and cardiopul-
	      monary monitoring of dogs.

Cell Culture  Dispersion and primary culture of rat anterior pituitaries
Skills	      as well as the maintenance of several pituitary cell lines
	      under a variety of culture conditions.

Computers     Data reduction, development of databases, graphics, and
	      word processing with the IBM PS II and Macintosh Plus.

Other	      Purification of peptides; extraction of steroids; devel-
Experience    opment of a novel technique which selectively destroys 
	      pituitary cells in vitro based on their receptor comple-
	      ment; setting up a new laboratory; training and supervis-
	      ing personnel.

Research      Research Associate, April 1988 to August 1989:
Employment    Department of Anatomy and Neurobiology, The University of
	      Missouri, Columbia, MO
	      Responsibilities:  the independent planning and execution
	      of neuroendocrine research projects; setting up the lab-
	      oratory; training and supervising new technicians.

	      Postdoctoral Fellow, September 1989 to the present:
	      Department of Anatomy and Cell Biology, Medical University
	      of South Carolina, Charleston, SC
	      Responsibilities:  the planning and execution of endocrine
	      research projects; supervising personnel.

	      List of publications attached.
