    His most recent is the Chapter on The Placenta (2012) in Sternberg's / Mills Histology for Pathologists, The Raven Press, having authored the previous editons with Kurt Benirschke and in the most recent with the addition of Dr. Miriam Post.

    He has performed basic science research with David I. Hirsh, G. Barry Pierce, David M. Prescott, Harold E. Fox and Deborah Wolgemuth. Research has focused on technologies for embryo micro- manipulation (murine and C. elegans) which has lead to current IVF protocols, the discovery of a novel Homeo-Box gene transcript, and published the first description of the mechanism for vertical transmission of HIV in Humans-featured as a lead article in the Lancet (c) 1990. His current Text is Vol. 23 in Contemporary Issues of Surgical Pathology- "Pathology of the Human Placenta" (c) 1999 by Churchill-Livingstone. He has written a white paper for Ethicon on reduction of surgical morbity.
