Abstract

My initial contact with teratology occurred in 1974 while I was in graduate school studying developmental biology and teratology at the University of Cincinnati. At that time my teachers included such world-renowned teratologists as James G. Wilson, Josef Warkany, Ernest Zimmerman, William Scott, and Harold Kalter. Also at that time, the University of Cincinnati was one of only a very few institutions that actually granted a Ph.D. degree in “Developmental Biology.” This interdisciplinary degree was based firmly on the study of abnormal development as a window into the regulation of normal embryogenesis.
