In subsequent work in the laboratory of Dr. Richard Harland as an American Cancer Society Postdoctoral Fellow he worked on the developmental biology of the amphibian Xenopus laevis. He has continued his research on Xenopus, as well starting a new project on ascidian developmental biology since joining the faculty at UCSB in 1995.
