For professors in the College of Health Sciences, they have a luxury some others could only hope for.
They are utilizing their undergraduate students to help with their research.
Join Dr. David J. Glass at 1 p.m. Thursday in CTW 127 as he visits the College of Health Sciences to present a "Special Seminar on Experimental Design."
"The University of Kentucky has long had an excellent group focusing on skeletal muscle research," says Glass, Vice President, Research-Aging/Age-Related Disorders, and Director, Postdoctoral Fellow Program at Regeneron Pharmaceuticals, a biotechnology company headquartered in Westchester County, New York. "So it’s a pleasure to come here and compare notes.”
