Default 2002 NIH Newsletter chronicling John Daly's career.

Not the golfer, the chemist. I'm not sure if this fits here or not. I assume it fits, given Daly's contributions to our understanding of toxins expressed in the skins of wild dendrobatids. My apologies if it is better suited to "The Lounge". It is more of a biographical sketch of a pioneer in the field of animal derived alkaloids that impact nerve signaling and their pharmacokinetics.

There is a great picture of his decked out in protective gear collecting frog skins in the field.

For me, finding this little gem set off fireworks before sunset.

Enjoy.
