PULLMAN – Gregory Poon, an assistant professor in the College of Pharmacy at WSU, has received a $10,000 grant from the Fraternal Order of Eagles for a cancer research project titled “Suppression of Resistance in Targeted Cancer Therapy.”
The grant was awarded by the Washington State Fraternal Order of Eagles to WSU’s Chronic Illness Research Center – formerly the Cancer Prevention Research Center – as the result of a call for research proposals.
Poon is a relatively new faculty member at WSU and arrived on the Pullman campus in August 2008. He has completed a post-graduate fellowship at the Ontario Cancer Institute in the Division of Cancer Genomics and Proteomics. He has a doctorate in pharmaceutical sciences from the University of Toronto.
