My research career has been highlighted by work in several distinctly different arenas, namely, studies of basic aspects of the nucleon-nucleon force at low energies via exclusive and inclusive quasifree scattering, studies involving double-strangeness production of new and composite particles predicted by QCD using high-energy kaon beams, and studies of photon and electron scattering from nucleons and nuclei using high-energy electron beams. Concentrated work in all of these areas has focussed my attention towards detailed investigations of the structure of the nucleon and the strong interaction via both N-N and e-N scattering, and studies of the Y-N sector via strangeness degrees of freedom.
