Our laboratory's research focuses on the chemistry and biology of reactive species such as free radicals as they apply to the pathogenesis of diseases. In particular, we investigate 1) chemical toxicology of reactive species; 2) design of innovative detection techniques and probes for the identification and detection of reactive species in biological systems; 3) pharmacological properties synthetic antioxidants and their synthesis.
