Director, Extramural Science Programs "The key thing to realize is that when it comes to chemistry, biology, physics, math, or engineering, there are no lines; they all interface seamlessly. I truly believe that this philosophy of the nature of matter and the life that springs from it will be the foundation for the next explosion of interventions that heal and cure."
Chief, Ultramicro Immunodiagnostics, Laboratory of Bioengineering and Physical Science “My father always used to tell me, ‘You need to find a job where you can play for the rest of your life.’ Well, I’ve certainly found it."

"Few achieve fame or wealth in this business, and the reward cycle can be long. That being said, it's almost like you get to play with new toys all the time...to dream about possible solutions, and tinker in the lab."
Health Science Administrator, Office of Extramural Programs "By providing an environment that brings people of diverse research backgrounds together, we aim to build a strong, easily navigable bridge of exchange that will significantly narrow the gap between discovery in the hard physical sciences and the manifestation of clinical application."
