md+Pictures+from+my+trip+on+March+11th

These folks poured kindness to me and each needs more than a full page to do justice. Dr. Richie Davidson is nationally famous for Madison's psychology department and neuro-imaging. Three extensive labs are under his direction. Dr. Charles Raison was the guest speaker from Emory University who presented on cytokines. On my right is the Psychology Department's Chair Dr. Trish Devine, who gave the most beautiful introduction of James' story at the lecture and helped me plan a very memorable day.

 This young man was the scholarship recipient last year for the James L. Davis Memorial Graduate Support Fund. We met briefly on March 11th and he shared his recently published research about sustainability of the reward center in depressed patients with me. It is an honor to be part of this place and these people's lives...if only a tiny bit.  Return to adventure home page
