Professor Emeritus, Molecular & Integrative Physiology

Areas of Interest

I am now Emeritus Professor of Physiology and my interest is teaching the history of medicine. This is directed at the methods used to validate any cure or advance in the ability to alleviate any medical problem. I direct much time to subjecting alternative medical claims to scrutiny by good scientific methods.
