    Past TIAFT Curry Award recipients - Bryan Finkle

    "I used to keep a quadrupole in my pocket..." Who else can say that?
     Bryan received the The International Association of Forensic Toxicologists' Alan Curry Award in 2018 and was present at the "revolt" of 1963 that led to TIAFT's genesis. Even after 6 decades in toxicology he continues to support the development of our science and our scientists through the Bryan Finkle Visiting Scientists Grant. A true giant of our field. Come along for the ride!
