NOVA SOUTHEASTERN UNIVERSITY 34 The RGI’s research and breakthroughs would not be possible without the continuing support of the Royal Dames organization, which has raised millions of dollars for the RGI through its annual Tiara Ball and other events. “We greatly appreciate the Royal Dames’ support of RGI research, providing wonderful opportunities for faculty members and students to innovate therapies that will make a positive difference in the future lives of cancer patients,” said Lisa Deziel, Pharm.D., Ph.D., dean of the College of Pharmacy. “Today, we remain a sisterhood of caring, passionate ladies focused on cancer research,” Ritchie said. “This sisterhood is proud to be doing its part to ensure that a brighter destiny is ahead when death and sickness from cancer are things of the past.” Prema Rathinavelu and Appu Rathinavelu College Pride Royal Dames (continued from previous page) Visit rgicr.nova.edu for more information about the RGI.
