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.
