|
| Dr. Sipes earned a B.S. in Pharmacy from the University of Cincinnati (1965) and the Ph.D. in Pharmacology from the University of Pittsburgh
(1969). After three years as a staff fellow at NIH, with Drs. B. Brodie and J. Gillette, he joined the faculty at the University of Arizona
as an assistant professor in 1973. There he developed a research program with emphasis on the biotransformation of drugs and environmental
chemicals and on mechanisms of chemical-induced liver injury. He is the author of over 140 research publications and several review articles
and book chapters. Dr. Sipes currently serves as Professor and Head of the Department of Pharmacology and Toxicology in the College of
Medicine at the University of Arizona and the Director of the Center for Toxicology. Dr. Sipes is active in the Society of Toxicology
having served as a councilor, secretary, vice president and currently as immediate Past-President. Dr. Sipes served as Editor of Toxicology
and Applied Pharmacology, an official journal of the Society for seven years and is an associate editor of Life Sciences
and on the editorial boards of Quality Assurance, and Annual Review of Pharmacology and Toxicology. Other professional
activities include serving as a Councilor for the International Society for the Study of Xenobiotics; as a Councilor for the American
Association for the Advancement of Science, of which he is a Fellow; as a member of the NAS/NRC Committee of Toxicology and Board of
Environmental Studies and Toxicology and as Chairperson of the NIH Toxicology Study Section. He was a Burroughs Welcome Toxicology Scholar
from 1985-1990. |

Dr. McQueen received a B.S. in Biology from Marywood College (1969), a M.S. in Pharmacology (1972) from New York University and the Ph.D.
from the University of Michigan. She joined the staff of the American Health Foundation and established a research program in chemical
carcinogenesis and pharmacogenetics. In 1990 she moved to the University of Arizona where she is an Associate Professor in the Department
of Pharmacology and Toxicology, a member of the Center for Toxicology/Southwest Environmental Health Sciences Center (SWEHSC), and Director
of the SWEHSC Community Outreach and Education Program.
Dr. McQueen is a Councilor for the International Society for the Study of
Xenobiotics and a member of the Education Committee of the Society of Toxicology. She is also active in the American Association for
Cancer Research and the American Society of Pharmacology and Experimental Therapeutics. She has served as member of the National Research

BIOGRAPHICAL SKETCH
Jay Gandolfi was born and raised
in the San Francisco bay area. He attended college at the University of California at Davis. He received his Ph.D. in biochemistry from
Oregon State University. This was followed by a Post Doctoral Fellowship at the Mayo Clinic in anesthetic fate and toxicity. He joined
the University of Arizona in 1978 and is currently Professor of Anesthesiology, Pharmacology, and Toxicology. His interests are in the
mechanisms of cellular toxicity and cell death. Current studies concentrate on the role of the immune system in fluorocarbon induced
hepatotoxicity, the reversal of toxicity using agents adminstered post-intoxication, and the use of in vitro systems to evaluate
cell specific injury. The toxicants of interest include: halogenated hydrocarbons, volatile anesthetics, metals, cysteine conjugates,
and classical hepatic/renal toxicants. He has served on the Toxicology Study Section for the National Institutes of Health and has held
several offices in the Society of Toxicology including President of the Mechanisms Specialty Section. He is currently Chair of the Graduate
Program in Pharmacology and Toxicology and Associate Director of the Superfund Hazardous Waste Program.
He lives with his wife, Judi,
on the "Double J Ranch" on the outskirts of Tucson. They enjoy horseback riding in the mountains of Southern Arizona and playing with
their numerous pets. They have three grown sons, two who are engineers and one who is in advertising.
