Hitting the Right Note

At age 67, Bob Floyd, Ph.D., isn’t slowing down. Some would be content to leave work behind and pursue a pastime—like singing, which Floyd does with the All Souls Episcopal Church choir. It’s a hobby he cherishes, though it does require devotion and focus. But then again, when you’re the head of the Experimental Therapeutics […]

But in a college immunology class, I found a real-life mystery to tackle when I learned how much can go wrong in […]
