Dr. Patterson is the Associate Director of Regulatory Compliance and Risk Management (RCRM) at the National Center for Toxicological Research (NCTR)/U.S. Food & Drug Administration (FDA) and is responsible for managing the areas of environmental and occupational safety and health, radiation safety, physical security, quality assurance and records management. Prior to moving to RCRM, Dr. Patterson was involved in neuroscience and neurotoxicology research for more than twenty years. His primary research interests included development and validation of animal models to predict neurotoxicity in humans, using pharmacodynamic, pharmacokinetic and behavioral approaches; developing novel assays to measure levels of neurotoxic compounds and their metabolites in the blood and brain, and determining their effects on neurotransmitters; and implementing and validating genomic techniques to search for biomarkers of neurotoxicity.
