Since 1997, the Dr. Edward A. Khairallah Fund for Scholarship has supported ongoing symposia and support for graduate students pursuing degrees in biochemistry, cell biology or toxicology. This year’s Symposium will pay tribute to his late wife, Dr. Lamia H. Khairallah, and her enduring contributions to teaching and research at the University of Connecticut. It also marks the renaming of the Fund to the Dr. Edward A. and Dr. Lamia H. Khairallah Fund for Scholarship.
