I received my Ph.D. from Cornell University in comparative and functional anatomy for work on the pathophysiology of stress. In addition to professional publications that include journal articles and contributed chapters, technical reports, and magazine articles, I am the lead author of ten undergraduate textbooks, two Atlases, and five clinical manuals in the fields of anatomy and physiology or anatomy. These publications are detailed here,   

 

My various research projects are detailed here.​  In October 2023 I was awarded a Masters degree in Military History with Distinction from the University of Wolverhampton in the UK. My thesis work was on the symbiotic relationship between the US Army and Wernher von Braun that evolved from 1945-1947. The evolved into a publication in the International Journal of Miliitary History and Historiography.

I have a long-standing bond with the Shoals Marine Laboratory, a joint venture between Cornell University and the University of New Hampshire.  I am a President Emeritus of the Human Anatomy and Physiology Society (HAPS), and was a member of the committee that established the course curriculum guidelines for undergraduate anatomy and physiology. My professional memberships are shown below.
