Turned 64 today. That means 43.5 years from my first cancer diagnosis. Passion for drug discovery remains unabated. Thanks to great coworkers and collaborators, progress is being made. I am in their debt and to all who have supported me over the years. Thanks!

Happy to be alive and to have reached age 65. There have been times where attaining this milestone looked frankly improbable. Thanks to all — family, friends, mentors, colleagues, coworkers, collaborators, medical professionals, etc. — who made it possible!

Delighted to see our core texaphyrin drug delivery and lead agent licensed from UT Austin to the IQ Group out of Sydney, Australia. Both UT Austin and IQ group share the same motto: What starts here changes the world. An inspiration.
