Spring...finally...for real?

Well, if appearances, the temperature, and the amount of pollen in the air are any indication, perhaps spring is finally here....yay! It is 55 and sunny in Athens this morning, supposed to get up to 76 today and 79 tomorrow...sounds like spring, doesn't it?

I should have written about this sooner (I'm sorry, Chintu for not doing so...)

On a REALLY high, happy note, Chintu found out last week that the paper he co-wrote with his adviser about his experiments is being published....how's that for impressive? The paper is titled "Fluorescence Imaging Study of Extracellular Zinc at the Hippocampal Mossy Fiber Synapse" and it will be published in "Neuroscience Letters". (I'll let ya'all know when!)

Then, this week, he attended the Distinguished Osteopathic Commitment Awards dinner hosted by Sigma Sigma Phi and Student Government on behalf of the OU-COM student body where he was AGAIN (second consecutive year) named as Outstanding Tutor for his TA work in PCC I. Looks like his students love and appreciate him, huh?

CONGRATULATIONS to you, Chintu, on both accomplishments! I love you and am SO proud of you!
