Aaron's Story
Workplace
Finished my post-doc at SRI and moved to Winston-Salem, NC to take a job at Targacept.
I'm a research scientist developing new drugs for treatment of Alzheimer's Disease, Parkinson's and for smoking cessation.
I like the work, I like the area and I am happy I made the move.
Bought a beautiful house and I live in Rural Hall, NC with my fiancee Jamie...we're getting married in Jamaica in April and after that, who knows?

Went to UK and got a BS in molecular biology.
Started graduate school in 2000 at UK's College of Pharmacy. I spent a summer as an invited researcher at University College London, UK.
I finished my Ph.D. last year and took a post-doc at Southern Research Institute working on influenza and ricin toxin reaearch.

Interests
I spent most of my graduate school time traveling around the US racing my road bike. I spent a little over a year racing as a professional when reality hit and I had to get back to work on my Ph.D. before they kicked me out of the program. I raced in some national championship races and enjoyed some success, but there's not a whole lot of money in cycling unless you are world class, so I've been trying to adjust to life off the bike in the last couple of years.
Current interests include the never-ending home improvement, setting up and developing a home business, fishing when I can, keeping in shape and trying to keep in touch with old friends, but I've never been the best wth keeping in touch.
