* David has successfully defended his PhD thesis: Development of a Carbon Nanotube Field Emission Based Microbeam Cellular Irradiator. Congratulations Dr. Bordelon!

*Yueh Lee, MD/PhD, won the basic science research award at today's Radiology and Biomedical Research Imaging Center Symposium. This is the 3^rd time he won the award at this annual event. The rumor is that he will be banned from presenting in this meeting in the future. The title of his talk is Prospective Cardiac Gated Mouse Imaging with Carbon Nanotube Micro-Computed Tomography, Yueh Z. Lee, Guohua Cao, Laurel Burk, Jianping Lu, Otto Zhou
