Had I not had the privilege of being mentored by Dr. Woster, I genuinely don’t think I would have been inspired to become a scientist. Not only was a great chemist with an incredible mind, but he was one of the kindest people I’ve ever known.

Dr. Woster supported the passionate pursuit of ideas and encouraged me to follow my burning research question. He did so much for his students and MUSC. He will be greatly missed.

“Most common psychedelics are categorized in schedule I. This classification is incompatible with the growing body of evidence that psychedelics are useful for treating conditions such as depression, post-traumatic stress disorder and substance use disorder.”
Drug scheduling limits access to essential medicines and should be reformed.

"Baby your mind is a radio, got a receiver inside my head" are lyrics from a Talking Heads song about someone convinced that radio signals are sending messages to their brain. This is the song from which Radiohead took their name.
Anyway, best Radiohead album is:
