Ce as Page 84 — Terrace Standard, Wednesday, October 3, 1990 Carruthers: Debbie and Bruce Carruthers a t Research results published have every reason to be proud of their son Vern whose latest successes include the publica- tion of one of his research papers and securing a post- doctorate research fellowship at Rockefeller University in Manhattan. Vern was nine months old when the family moved here in 1964. His schooling began with - kindergarten at Vi Keenleyside’s followed by the old Kalum school, Clarence Michiel, Skeena Jr. Secondary and final- ly Caledonia where he graduated in 1981. From there it was on to the University of Victoria where he recived his BSc in microbiology and biochemistry in 1985. He will add a PhD to that — from the University of Western On- tario — in February of next year. In 1988 Vern spent three months in the northwestern African country of Gambia where he researched diseases wnder the sponsorship of the Health Council of Canada. One of ‘the research papers that resulted has now been published by the Journal of Cell Biology and Biochemistry. He is now off to Rockefeller University where he will spend three years researching molecular biology and parasitology and will deliver some lectures to the undergraduates on those sub- jects. Upon completion, he plans to return to Canada as an assistant professor but he hasn't yet selected the university. His professor says Vern’s dedication and hard work have put him in the best position any student could be in at this point in time. kakkk The Carruthers family also recently celebrated another big day in Vern's life —- his mar- riage to Cindy McKay, daughter of Stewart and Rose Jean McKay of Sarnia, Ont. The lovely out-door wedding took place Aug. 30 ai the Leslie Perrin estate on the university grounds. Standing in'on Vern’s — side was brother Clint while Cindy’s bridesmaid was a class mate from Australia. The recep- tion followed on the estate, the many guests enjoying a buffet- style meal. After a two week honey- moon, the couple gol busy preparing for the move to Manhattan where Cindy plans to take a position as research assistant in genetics. Cindy will receive her Masters in microbiology and biochemistry from the Universi- ty of Western Ontario next February. weak A little announcement of a new arrival: Brenda and Brian Short (Brian is Mary Alice Short’s son) of Prince George have just been blessed with a THE WORLD IS YOURS.../F YOU KNOW THE RIGHT PEOPLE...
