Lung Transplant Costly Lancasters Hope for Community Help, Plan Fundraiser in Masur By Rich McManus
If someone tells you he is from Peoria, Ill., the natural inclination is to assign
all-American qualities -- wholesome, upright, Godfearing and hardworking. And
Peorian Henry Lancaster is all of these, in spades. He looks a shade like actor
Kevin Bacon, only without the hard eyes. A third-year clinical fellow in the
National Institute of Dental Research, he is soft-spoken, calm, open and seems
utterly guileless. The kind of guy mothers probably want to see their daughters tow
home.
A Real October-fest By Gregory Roa
Like a lot of other things around campus these days, the NIH Research Festival
has undergone quite a few changes. The annual event has migrated to a new
month, running the week of Oct. 6 to 10 instead of in mid-September. The
festival's circus-size tents have moved as well, to a new site near the front of the
Natcher Bldg. And for the first time, the program includes not one but two evening
picnics, plus a new and improved job fair for NIH postdocs. As always, however,
Research Festival retains the same great schedule of symposia, workshops and
posters, all of which will be held inside the Natcher Conference Center.
