Former lab member passes away

Former lab technician Dustin Manning (B.S. WSU Vancouver 2013) passed away in late November after a battle with opioid addiction. Dustin had a big heart and loved to help his friends and family. Our hearts go out to his family, and to all those struggling with addiction.
