Bottom row, third from the left. That's Tim Wencewicz. Tim was a superstar graduate student in Professor Marv Miller's lab and is now an Assistant Professor at WUSTL. And, according to the most recent issue of "Biochemistry", Tim is one of the 44 young scientists who have been identified as the future of biochemistry. Well done Tim!

Friends! It was great to see Prof. Lieberman honored as a member of ND's "All Faculty" team during the NC state game. (The way she handled that football hand-off from Tom Burish leads us to think we should have used her during that Miami game.) Thanks Prof. Lieberman, for all your good science and all your good works.

As the University of Notre Dame's chief academic officer, Provost Thomas G. Burish is responsible for the stewardship of the institution's academic mission, seeking to cultivate a learning community that challenges and engages students, inspires leading research and scholarship, and appreciates all…

There are few sadder stories in our extended Notre Dame family than the untimely loss of Coach Ara's three beautiful grandchildren, Michael, Christa, and Marcia, to Niemann-Pick Type C disease. See what Professor Paul Helquist and coworkers are doing in their quest for a cure.

Further proof that we are an elite department: check out the number of ND chemists and biochemists that are on this year's Rec Sports championship softball team. Not to rub it in, but this would be the 5th championship in the last 6 years for a Professor Creary-captained team. Way to hit the ball and touch 'em all!
