| DOB 3/17/1946 Charleston, WV Alameda resident 1962 to present. Married to Teddy Tabor 35 years. One daughter, one son, 3 grandchildren. Son of a Naval Flight Surgeon. Oldest of 6 children. Undergraduate work at College of San Mateo and UC Berkeley. Postgraduate work in protein biochemistry at CSU Hayward. 1977-1994 Protein Biochemistry Researcher 1994-1997 UOP Dental School After postgraduate school I began work in the biochemistry field working first in nutritional research and, later, as an independent consultant in analytical methods development. I then worked for a start-up biotech company (now Berlex Bioscience) involved in the development of the clot-dissolving drug TPA, among others. I next worked for Applied Biosystems, a company that develops technology and materials for biotechnology research. After 17 years of biochemistry and genetic engineering , I entered UOP dental school as the oldest student in the school’s 100 year history, a fact communicated to me by Dr. Arthur Dugoni, dean of the school. Following graduation, I purchased a solo dental practice in my home town of Alameda where I have practiced for 8 years. I enjoy being more a part of the community than I was before dental school. I am a volunteer for Alameda Civic Light Opera as well as other community organizations. |
