DAVID RHODES' LAB

Our lab is its people ...

(Note that this part is graphics intensive and still being formatted.)

Here are some of us in the lab, at various meetings, and elsewhere.

Almira Blazek (postdoctoral fellow, at right) - at the 1999 AAPS NERDG meeting. With her are Linh Pham (center) and Camille Persaud (left), UConn Pharmacy students who were presenting their research work.

Almira again at the 2000 AAPS Eastern Regional meeting

Almira in the lab - making the data that will eventually get presented.

Almira with Siddhesh Patil (graduate student) ... working on the analysis of those results.

Siddhesh Patil - winning a poster award at the 1999 AAPS Eastern Regional meeting

Sid discovers that winning posters are a great way to meet people. "Its better than a singles bar!" (An incentive to go into research?)

Sid presented at AAPS Eastern Regional 2000 too.

Sid and Dongmei Lu (graduate student) at the 2000 AAPS Northeast Regional Discusison Group.

Adeniyi Fisayo (Niyi - pronounced "Ni") is a pharmacy student working in our lab. He presented his first scientific poster at AAPS Eastern Regional 2000.

...of course, he had some help setting it up. Also present are four of the 2000 summer fellows - and Almira (center). Left to right, the fellows are: Lisa Moore (U. Pittsburgh), Mary Besl (SUNY Oswego), (Almira - not a summer fellow), Alana Houston (Phila. COP), and Kim Byrd (St. Louis COP).

Atin Chopra was in the lab during the Spring and Summer of 2000, working on a CD project.

Matt Silver worked in the lab for the '99/'00 year on a DSC project. He's now pursuing a PhD at UNH.

Alanya Engtrakul - Summer research fellow, 1999.

Linh Phuong and Camille Persaud (pharmacy students / undergrad researchers) in the lab

Summer '98 research students Melinda Sharkey and Ed Silva (now graduated).

Adam Slickman (Trinity Chemistry) worked mainly with the mass spectrometer and presented the work at an Undergraduate Research Symposium at West Virginia University.

Luan Nguyen (pharmacy student) did some nice CD work.

The summer '96 crew (Sara Tavernier, Danielle Wright, and Theo Rhodes) ... (classic photo!!)

Many of the summer students (Danielle Wright, Adam Slickman, Melinda Sharkey,Alanya Engtrakul, Jose Cordero, Mary Besl, and Niyi Fisayo) were fellows in the lab through a Summer Research Fellowship in Pharmaceutical Sciences. The program is supported by Pfizer, Boehringer Ingleheim, and Bayer, and is coordinated by Dr. Bogner.
