CURRENT RESEARCH INTERESTS
Physiologic and therapeutic properties of androgens and androgen
manipulation in humans. Major projects include: 1)
examination of the consequences of testosterone replacement on prostate
health in middle-aged and elderly, hypogonaldal men at both the
clinical, hormonal, and molecular levels; 2) examining the effect of
androgens on host immunity and inflammation; and 3) determining the
effect of testosterone on cardiovascular risk and risk factors.
Continued involvement in projects investigating the pharmokinetics of
novel oral formulations of testosterone delivery and the development of
an effective, reversible male hormonal contraceptive.
