Wise Laboratory of Environmental and Genetic Toxicology

Wise Lab 2009Wise Lab 2009

  • The Laboratory uses novel cell culture models and state-of-the-art molecular and toxicological techniques to investigate the effects of metals and particulates on humans and marine animals. In addition, the laboratory uses advanced molecular epidemiological techniques to study gene-environment interactions and to assess individual susceptibility to disease.
  • The Laboratory is under the direction of Dr. John Pierce Wise, Sr. and includes professional staff, students (graduate, undergraduate and high-school), and volunteers.
  • Contributions to the Laboratory can be made using the link on the left column.
