Congratulations to Katherine Smart, Ph.D. candidate working with Dr. Teresa Golden, for receiving a grant from the Southwestern Association of Toxicologist to help further her research.

Ms. Smart's research centers on finding new stationary phases for use in gas chromatography to separate fentanyl isomers. Data from these phases will be used for computational studies to determine fentanyl's distribution within various tissues. This information is needed to create the first guide that links likelihood of an exposure to effective site and physiological response.
