Research Interests keywords 

These are especially useful when someone is searching for people like you Profiles @ St. Kate's, Google, or any other web search tool. Experts@Minnesota does include an automatically generated "fingerprint" based on text analysis of titles and abstracts. But the words it chooses aren't always the words a person searching for profiles like yours would use.

• Type individual words or short phrases you would like to be included in your profile in the provided text boxes
• Use words that describe your work, but try to be consistent with the terms researchers in your field use
