Hi, my name is Tod (with one “d”) Harper Jr, and I am recent transplant to Corvallis from Galveston, Texas.<\/p>\n

While in Texas I earned a B.S. in Marine Biology from Texas A&M University @ Galveston and a PhD. in Pharmacology & Toxicology from The University of Texas Medical Branch. My dissertation project in the laboratory of Dr. Cornelis Elferink focused on identifying physiological functions of the aryl hydrocarbon receptor.<\/p>\n

As a postdoctoral fellow at Oregon State University in Dr. David William’s laboratory (Project 1<\/a>),\u00a0 I am investigating the early mechanisms involved in cancer initiation after in utero<\/em> exposure to the environmental contaminants. In addition, I am investigating how maternal consumption of dietary phytochemicals can protect the developing fetus from environmental insults in the womb.<\/p>\n

When I am not in the laboratory I can most likely be found camping, trail running, eating oysters by the dozen, and\/or enjoying one of Oregon\u2019s fine craft brews!<\/p>\n
