About Maureen Sanz
I am a professor of biology and director of the Faculty Professional Center at Molloy University. I graduated from Skidmore College with a B.A. in Biology and Chemistry and worked as a research assistant in the protein chemistry laboratory of the Nobel Prize Laureate, Robert B. Merrifield, at the Rockefeller University. I continued graduate studies in biology and earned master’s and doctoral degrees from Fordham University. My interest in human chromosomes and cell culture were furthered during my NIH post-doctoral fellowship in Human Genetics with Dr. James L. German III at the New York Blood Center. I am a Fellow of the American College of Medical Genetics and am board certified in clinical cytogenetics. My research interest in human genetics and cytogenetics continues working with students on genomic instability exhibited by cultured cells of persons with Bloom syndrome, a rare inherited disorder characterized by short stature and predisposition to the development of cancer.
