Scientific Focus
Current Research Interests
My lab studies the coordination of neonatal bladder and external urethral sphincter function. By understanding how the spinal cord creates efficient voiding in neonates and children, we hope to develop new treatments for pediatric voiding dysfunction and adult urinary incontinence.
