Mentor of the Month: Don Wiebe

By Sten Westgard, MS


WiebePhoto Over at the AACC website, they have a "Mentor of the Month" section, where they focus on a distinguished scientist who has made contributions to helping the next generation of laboratorians.

I'm happy to point out that the December 2008 Mentor is another one of the "Wisconsin Mafia": Don Wiebe, Ph.D., DABCC, FACB. They also posted an interview with him. You even get a flavor of Don's warmth and humor, even though there aren't any of Don's famous jokes in the article. [Note: I'm using the Google cached versions of those pages, since the AACC changes the Mentor every month.] 

Don has worked with Dr. James O. Westgard for decades - and taught him a thing or two about the laboratory. Recognition of Don's contributions to clinical chemistry is long overdue and well-deserved. He's a great scientist, laboratorian, teacher and friend.

Congratulations to Don. And we encourage you to read more about him.
