Research summary
AI-generated

The recent publication record centers on molecular and genetic biology, including the creation of engineered mouse models, CRISPR-based genetic tools, and studies of genetic variants underlying human diseases affecting bone, RNA processing, and development. Note that the historical research topics listed (alkaloid chemistry and plant-based medicine) differ substantially from the recent publication themes, suggesting the bibliographic record may span more than one focus.

Collaborators per year
Distinct co-authors at Indiana University each year — a rough indication of whether the group around this researcher has been growing or contracting. An estimate from co-authorship, not a roster: collaborators are not necessarily lab members, and recent years can be under-counted while indexing catches up.
