I am an organismal biologist, with past research in animal physiology. I have taught courses in principles of biology, animal physiology, biological clocks, endocrinology, and vertebrate reproduction. Throughout these efforts, I have focused on mechanisms of action since cause-and-effect analyses of biological problems aids understanding and formulating more accurate solutions.
I have worked extensively in the College Board’s Advanced Placement Biology program, including service as Chief Faculty Consultant with ETS® (formerly the Educational Testing Service). My AP-Biology work has crossed my path with those of many outstanding teachers, some of the best people I have known. With three co-authors, we produced a successful and effective textbook for high school classes in AP-Biology (Biology for the AP® Course, BFW Publishers).
My current work (June 2024) is directed to further developing interactive textbooks in biology.
