John K. Critser,
PhD
Professor of Veterinary Pathobiology, Co-Investigator MU-iCATS John K. Critser, PhD, is responsible for leadership and administration of the cores involving novel clinical/translational methodologies, translational technologies/resources, and pilot and collaborative translational/clinical studies. Dr. Critser received his Bachelors degree in Biology and Philosophy from Ripon College and his M.S. and Ph.D. from the University of Wisconsin-Madison.
After a postdoctoral fellowship
at the Mayo Clinic, he established the Reproductive Biology Laboratory at Methodist
Hospital of Indiana where he was director until 1997. In 1997, he moved to the Indiana
University School of Medicine as an associate professor in Pediatrics. In 2000,
he was promoted to full professor. In 2001, Dr. Critser moved his research program
to the University of Missouri-Columbia where he is the Gilbreath-McLorn Professor
of Comparative Medicine and Director of the Comparative Medicine Center.
At MU,
he has developed 3 NIH-funded national animal resource centers which are focused,
in large part, on comparative medicine. Most recently, Dr. Critser was awarded an
R01 component of the Oncofertility U54 program, one of the first funded NIH Roadmap
Initiative projects.
Dr. Critser is a member of many professional societies, and
editorial review boards; he has been continuously funded by the NIH for 20 years,
has published over 160 peer reviewed articles and reviews, is the past chair of
the NIH National Center for Research Resources (NCRR) Comparative Medicine Study
Section, and has mentored more than 30 graduate students and 20 postdoctoral fellows,
many of whom are now in professional roles in the areas of cryobiology, comparative
medicine, reproductive biology, molecular biology, engineering, medicine, and veterinary
medicine.
