Abstract

I am honored and grateful to the Organizing Committee to have been invited to participate in this Symposium honoring Tak. It may be especially so because my assignment is to talk about drug transport in skin and my first job after receiving my Ph.D. in 1956 was to study factors influencing drug transport across skin at the University of Wisconsin under a Defense Department contract directed by Tak and Dale Wurster.
