Professor

Education: Ph.D., Nutrition, University of California-Berkeley, 1985

Interests: Food toxicology of phytoestrogens (isoflavones, lignans) and fungal toxins (deoxynivalenol, fumonisins); gut microbial metabolism and bioavailability of phytochemicals and digestion-resistant starches and dietary fibers; chronic disease-preventive (colon cancer, colitis, cholesterol-lowering) and immune enhancing effects of dietary phenolics (flavonoids and caffeic acid/derivatives) and digestion-resistant starches.
