Trevor's first teaching post was at the University of Technology in Lae, Papua New Guinea, during 1974. He taught
at Curtin University, in Western Australia, during the rest of the 70's. Following up on his Masters degree in
1978, he commenced PhD studies at the University of Western Australia, home to Barry Marshall (no relation) (of
Helicobacter Pylori fame). Clinical studies were with Tim Welborn and Ted Keogh at the Sir Charles Gairdner Hospital
in Western Australia and Mike Albisser's group at the Hospital for Sick Children in Toronto.
In 1982 he moved to the USA, and now lives in California. His PhD thesis "Mathematical Modeling of the Insulin
Glucose Homeostasis in Diabetic and Healthy Individuals" was accepted in 1985. For most of the succeeding
decades he was CEO of YARC Systems, specializing in high-tech Internet Publishing.
Over the last few years Trevor has been defining the biochemical roles of the steroid hormones Angiotensin II and
1,25-dihydroxyvitamin-D in immune disease. In 2002 he published a complete etiological description for Sarcoid
Inflammation, and his current interest is in understanding how this same hormonal/bacterial pathogenesis might
drive other Rheumatic and Cardiac diseases |
