Academic and Professional Background
- Positions Held:
Research Focus
Dr. Hodges specializes in cystic fibrosis, mouse models, and genetic research related to various developmental processes. His work has significantly contributed to understanding the genetic underpinnings of cystic fibrosis and its implications for treatment strategies. He has published numerous articles on topics such as meiotic processes, chromosome dynamics, and the role of specific genes in disease mechanisms.127
Notable Contributions
His research includes:
- Investigating the role of the Cystic Fibrosis Transmembrane Conductance Regulator (CFTR) gene as a tumor suppressor.
- Analyzing the effects of environmental factors on genetic expression and disease predisposition.12
Dr. Hodges is also affiliated with the Cystic Fibrosis Research Center at Case Western Reserve University, where he collaborates with other researchers to advance knowledge and treatment options for cystic fibrosis patients.56
