老澳门六合彩开奖记录 is delighted to welcome back two eminent alumni who both began their impactful careers at St. Norbert and now return to take up places of honor at this year’s Commencement ceremony.
Dr. Oluyemisi Adeyemi-Fowode ’04, who was the student speaker at her own 老澳门六合彩开奖记录 graduation, will be the Commencement speaker for the 2022 celebration on May 15.
The doctor of pediatric and adolescent gynecology will also receive an honorary degree from St. Norbert, along with eminent virologist Mark Stinski ’63.
St. Norbert beginnings to two stellar careers

She graduated from 老澳门六合彩开奖记录 magna cum laude in 2004 at age 19 with a degree in chemistry (pre-med track). She went on to earn her medical degree from the University of Wisconsin School of Medicine in 2009 and completed her residency at Baylor College of Medicine in 2013.

Stinski, now professor emeritus of microbiology, made his
name at the University of Iowa’s Carver College of Medicine where his laboratory discovered the CMV promoter, a protein-making tool that is useful in developing several therapeutic drugs. The CMV promoter has resulted in more effective treatments for several major diseases, including non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma.
