My research centers around the mechanisms that control the activities of proteins that participate in cell signaling.  I investigate the structure, function and control of NADPH oxidases (NOX) and of voltage-gated proton channels (H_V1). NOXes and H_V1 are known to work together in several cell types, and both produce signals important not only to human health but also to the development, physiology, and lifestyles of many other organisms. I work with KSU students and faculty and with investigators around the world.  For more details and current projects, see the Research page.
