I study how cells handle chemical stress, and what happens when they cannot.
Two research tracks connect environmental exposure to cellular recovery: how vaping affects male reproductive health, and how cells bring stress signals to an end.
Vaping and male reproductive health
Smokers, vapers and dual users compared, so the aerosol itself is the variable.
Cellular signaling circuits
Five papers treating pathways as control systems that must also resolve, not switches.

The unfolded protein response as a proteotoxic stress-resolution circuit
A framework in which environmental toxicants act as proteotoxic inputs, IRE1α, PERK and ATF6 decode ER stress into immune outcomes, and failed resolution can shift immune and barrier cells into persistent dysfunction.
Report recovery kinetics, branch-specific signaling and functional immune output, so incomplete recovery rather than peak activation becomes the variable.
Both tracks, side by side
The doctoral study and the circuit framework, with the questions each one is built to answer.
