Research Interests:

Bob McKinnell spent his scientific career studying the Lucke renal
adenocarcinoma, its herpesvirus (RaHV-1) and the competence
of its genome to promote normal differentiation as studied with
nuclear transplantation (cloning). He has also maintained a long
term interest in the prevalence and distribution of two pigment p
attern mutants of the northern leopard frog, Rana pipiens.
