Teaching Philosophy:

I try to teach my students that science is not only a body of information, but also a way of learning about the world we live in. In my classes I do this by fostering discussion, rather than a reliance on passive, rote learning. Students also need to know that, as science is a dynamic, changing body of knowledge, what is considered scientific fact today, may not be so tomorrow, and that our understanding of our world only increases by continuing to ask questions about it.

I also feel that examinations should be more than a recitation of facts. When possible, my written examinations require the students to synthesize material from many subject areas and solve problems. Often the questions take the form of designing experiments and interpreting experimental results. I hope that my students are able to use the information they gain, not merely remember it.

Laboratory experience is important in the sciences. But laboratory exercises should not be limited to a "look and see" format. I have tried to design my laboratory exercises to mimic the types of experiments that students are apt to experience in a laboratory setting after they finish their undergraduate education. Students are given instructions (frequently they are asked to design their own experiments), but never told what to expect. The students must gather their data and interpret it based upon the material they have received in lecture and through their readings. I try to avoid telling students whether they are getting the "right" results or not, but rather, suggest things that they could try in the lab to help them determine the validity of their results. This is very frustrating to some students, particularly those not used to this type of laboratory, but I find that as the semester goes on the students begin to gain an appreciation for both the information gained in the laboratory exercises, and the way in which that information is gathered and interpreted.

Research Interests:

My research focuses on the endocrine control of reproduction in fish. Under this broad area, I am involved in several research projects, using the goldfish, Carassius auratus, as a model organism:

1. The effects of nutrition on the synthesis and secretion of gonadotropin-releasing hormones. Undernourished fish do not undergo gonadal growth even if they are provided with stimulatory environmental conditions. Current studies are investigating the effects of undernutrition on gonadotropin-releasing hormone synthesis and secretion. As these hormones act as triggers for the development of the reproductive system, any inhibition of their synthesis and secretion would reduce the reproductive function of the animal as a whole.

2. The uptake and metabolism of steroids by mesenteric adipose tissue. Mesenteric adipose tissue sequesters and metabolizes gonadal steroids, and is a steroid target in mammals. We are investigating the role of this tissue in steroid metabolism in fish, focusing on the aromatization of testosterone to estradiol, and the effects of these hormones on triglyceride metabolism. Signalling by gonadal steroids may be an important regulator of nutrient availability during the annual reproductive cycle of fish.

3. The opiatergic regulation of feeding behavior in fish. The involvement of endogenous opioid peptides in the control of feeding is being investigated. As these peptides are also modulators of gonadotropin-releasing hormone and gonadotropic hormone secretion, they may serve as one of the signals by which an animal monitors its nutritional state and determines whether adequate energy is available for reproductive development.
