Although the spotlight shone on Alexander “Sasha” Kabanov, Ph.D., D.Sc., UNMC’s newest Scientist Laureate quickly cast it on the faces of those who made him the outstanding researcher he is.<\/p>\n

During a ceremony Tuesday, Dr. Kabanov, Parke-Davis Professor in Pharmaceutics and director of the Center for Drug Delivery and Nanomedicine, was honored with UNMC’s most prestigious research award along with 22 other researchers who were named 2009 UNMC Distinguished Scientists and New Investigator award winners.<\/p>\n

\n<\/TABLE>“To receive such a major award is a very humbling experience,” said Dr. Kabanov, who is a leader in the areas of nanomedicine and nanotechnology. “You think of people along the way who made you the way you are.”<\/p>\n

Through poignant photos, Dr. Kabanov paid tribute to his mother, a ballerina, and his late father, a prominent Russian chemist, who instilled his passion for the arts and science.<\/p>\n

He acknowledge the three previous Scientist Laureates: Stephen Rennard, M.D., Irving Zucker, Ph.D., and Howard Gendelman, M.D. — two of whom he collaborates with and works to train junior faculty.<\/p>\n

He described his early years in the Soviet Union, the American woman, “Granny Goldie,” who helped him learn English and his mentors at Moscow State University. He also acknowledged his wife, mother-in-law and three daughters.<\/p>\n

“I couldn’t be really at home here if I didn’t have my research family,” he said, noting the richness of his laboratory where colleagues and students speak 14 languages “My life is a full cup.”<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
