Graduate Programs: The M.S. and Ph.D. programs in pharmacy offer advanced education in all aspects of pharmaceutical sciences, including discovery, development, and use of therapeutic agents. Our areas of emphasis include: ❖ interdisciplinary application of chemical, biochemical, and molecular principles to the identification and development of therapeutic agents ❖ pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics, with an emphasis on drug delivery and targeting systems ❖ identification of new therapeutic targets through multidisciplinary approaches that exploit emerging molecular biological, biochemical, and biophysical tools to uncover disease-relevant signal transduction pathways in cells, tissues, and whole animals, including transgenic models ❖ pharmaceutical care delivery systems, pharmacoeconomics, drug distribution and public policy, drug use behavior and evaluation, and therapeutic outcomes. William Hayton Associate Dean Our faculty, researchers, and students all work toward a common goal — improving health through the use of medicinal agents, developing new and better drugs and drug delivery systems, using existing drugs more efficiently and lowering the cost of therapy by improving production, distribution, and marketing. We congratulate our MS and PhD graduates and their advisors: Yu-Chieh (Jack) Wang has been selected by NIH as one of the 250 students nationwide to attend the NIH National Graduate Student Research Festival, all expenses paid by NIH. Jack, a student of Dr. Ching-Shih Chen, is studying chemistry synthesis in an attempt to validate targets for novel compounds to see if they might have potential to become therapeutic drugs in the fight against lung cancer. Jack earned his BS degree from National Taiwan University and came to Ohio State in 2004 to work towards a PhD. When he graduates in 2008 Jack will seek a position in academia, in a university setting where he can focus on both research and teaching. Jack finds that he misses his family in Taiwan (parents and brother) but has found OSU a welcoming community. Although Columbus is a much smaller city than his hometown, Taipei, Jack finds it exciting to meet and interact with people from many different parts of the world. Seth Gibbs, a graduate student under the direction of Dr. Duxin Sun, received the Targeted Investment in Excellence Fellowship from the College for his work on microRNA. His work focuses on how microRNA regulates oncogenes in drug resistance. In the world of drug development, Seth is working on new drugs to regulate this novel mechanism to combat drug resistance in cancer therapy. Seth is from Massilon, Ohio, earned his BS degree in Microbiology from OSU and will graduate soon, March 2008, with a PhD in Pharmaceutics. He and his wife, Christina, have two children, Raven and Hunter. They await their third child, due in November. After graduation, Seth is slated for a position in industry in the area of drug development. His experience at Ohio State and his interactions with our pharmacy faculty will prepare him well for this exciting field. 15
