This interest led him to graduate work that focused on Allergy and Immunology, and he gained an appreciation for the interaction of science and healthcare.

After nine years of teaching biology, Dr. Moore returned to ECU as the Director of the Center for STEM Education where he supports the regional STEM enterprise by leading STEM outreach programs, providing STEM services, and conducting research that has a particular focus on under-representation in STEM & Medicine.
