Dear Colleagues,

I am delighted to inform that You-Yeon Won has been selected as one of the three inaugural Fellows by the Bindley Bioscience Center.  His project, titled “A Photo-Degradable Gene Delivery System for Enhanced Nuclear Transport” will start on July 1, 2012 and continue for two years. Our School will receive $25,000 per year to support his work as a Bindley Fellow, which will provide him teaching release for one semester in each of the next two academic years.  In addition, he will receive $10,000 per year in equipment and infrastructure support within the Bindley Bioscience Center.

Pl join me in congratulating You-Yeon for this terrific recognition and research support!
