Research Interests
Preservation of biological tissue: Aldehyde free alternatives and Plastination - an alternative to decrease formaldehyde vapor levels. In recent years, interest in alternative methods of preservation to decrease exposure to formalin has heightened. We have pioneered preservation via plastination and alternative methods for surgery demonstration.
Morphology of the respiratory and digestive systems of the domestic cat, ringed and bearded seals, beluga whale and the opossum Lymphatic system of caprine and ovine. Anatomy of many species has been extrapolated from similar species. Hence normal anatomy of many species, as well as, exotic species needs validation. Veterinary Medical Education.
