| I believe that a true scientist is a leader, a mentor, and a friend. You
have led your team of researchers in the field of pharmaceutical sciences
with pioneering ideas. You have been an inspiring mentor to countless young
scientists. You have been a great friend to laugh and have good times with
(dancing DDR). You are unique in your ability to do lateral thinking and
make principles from related sciences coalesce into new theories. The field
of pharmacokinetics, drug metabolism and drug transporters would not be
as advanced, if it weren't for your leadership. You are a true scientist
and a role model for all of us! Congratulations on the AAPS Distinguished Pharmaceutical Scientist Award. Sonia de Morais, Pfizer Inc. |
