HAPPY BIRTHDAY DR. BOGER!!! Wishing you all the best (and lots of chocolate too!)!!

Submitted by Mark Searcey (Asst. Prof. 1997-1999)

I was an Assistant Prof in the lab from 1997-1999 and then you probably know Richard Steel who was a post doc, with Dale having done a PhD with me. You could say that Dale is the scientific Grandfather in this picture, although he might not like that! Happy Birthday Dale! Sincerely, Mark Pictured: Mark Searcey (Asst.

Boger-san - Congratulations on the 65th birthday. It has already been 27 years since I studied in Boger's lab and enjoyed my life in San Diego, but it still remains in my head as a vivid memory. I learned an attitude toward research from Boger-san. It provides a powerful support for me when I encountered difficulties in my research life. I am tremendously grateful for Boger-san. I wish your continued success and prosperity.
