Scientific Focus
Research Interests
My research has primarily been clinically oriented and relates to neurologic relationships in the genitourinary tract. A fundamental aspect of investigation focuses on neurophysiologic assessment of disordered function due to trauma, infection, inflammation, prostate growth, or behavior abnormalities. I have investigated the urologic management and outcome after spinal cord injury. Current clinical research focuses on management of chronic pelvic pain utilizing drug trials and physiotherapy, new medical devices including electrical stimulation, and microdelivery of pharmaceutical agents.
