Congratulations John for finishing your PhD. "You have come so far and I am so proud of you. You are selfless when your friends need your help and I can’t imagine someone more deserving of a bright future than you. Thank you for all your support and friendship over the years. I couldn’t imagine grad school without you."

“John, I remember your excitement at your interview when you grabbed the white board pen from me as we discussed parasite transmission. It’s been wonderful to work with you on so many fun science projects over the years. You’ve been a valued member of our lab and I’m excited stay in touch with you and to hear about your new work. Hearty congratulations on your successes in graduate school” – Andrew Park
