Dr.
Valentino Stella’s Visit
Dr.
Valentino Stella, distinguished
professor at the department of pharmaceutical Chemistry, KU, paid a
two-day
visit to the pharmaceutics department at the U of M (March 4-5)
courtesy the
AAPS student chapter. He had a busy itinerary packed with a seminar,
one-to-one
discussions, lunches, dinner and student –post doc group interactions.
Dr. Stella’s interest, verve, stimulating conversations, keenness to
discuss everything under the sun and sense of humor made us enjoy every
minute
of his visit. His seminar on prodrugs as well as the valuable nuggets
of advice
on life and academics which he dispensed to us is something we all will
cherish!

Dr. Aurora Visit
Dr Jack Aurora, the Senior Director of
R&D at Perrigo Company, visited the chapter in early February.
During his
visit he presented a seminar about intellectual properties and generic
drug development.
Several students and post-docs took the opportunity to meet with Dr.
Aurora at the
lunch discussion following his seminar, while others had a chance to
speak with
him over breakfast or dinner, or in individual meetings. Dr. Aurora’s
visit allowed members to discuss and ask detailed questions about a
wide range
of topics, including those he discussed in his seminar as well as his
career
experience.
