Associate Professor
Washington State University
Pullman, Washington, United States
Dr. MacLean, Ph.D. is an Associate Professor in the School of Molecular Biosciences and the Associate Director for the Center for Reproductive Biology at Washington State University. His dissertation work characterized novel serine proteinase inhibitors produced by the ruminant trophoblast involved in maternal-fetal interaction. As a postdoc, he discovered the Rhox homeobox cluster and has led many studies examining their function in gametogenesis. Presently, his group is focused on the role of insulin signaling, a downstream target of RHOX factors, during implantation and the maintenance of pregnancy, primarily using conditional insulin receptor knockout mouse models and cultured human stromal cells.
