Chance Favors the Prepared Mind

Nobel Laureates (L-R) Ferid Murad, Louis Ignarro and Alfred Gilman

The Division for Pharmacology Education hosted three Nobel Laureates who are members of ASPET to celebrate ASPET's 100th birthday.  Ferid Murad, Louis Ignarro and Alfred Gilman each spoke about their lives in science with advice to those to come in a symposium entitled "Chance Favors a Prepared Mind: a Nobel Perspective.  Afterward the Laureates received a recognition award from the Division for Pharmacology Education and spoke with graduate students at a special reception.  See the pictures HERE!. 

 

Election Results

Dr. George Dunaway, Professor of Pharmacology at Southern Illinois University School of Medicine was elected as the fourth Chair of the division and has agreed to serve as Past Chair/Program Committee Representative (PCR) for 2 years after his tenure as Chair is up.  Some of you may know George (gdunaway@siumed.edu) and seen him as a regular attendee at our symposia the last two years at least.  Please wish him well.

 

Dr. Amy L. Wilson-Delfosse, Associate Professor of Pharmacology at Case Western Reserve School of Medicine was elected Secretary/Treasurer.  I believe she too has been at our symposia as well and you may wish to contact her and provide a welcome as well (amy.wilson-delfosse@case.edu).
