Prior to the lecture on Thursday, September 11th, 2008 a dinner was held to honor Dean Franklin. Guest Speaker was Dr. Saxon White, Discipline of Human Physiology School of Biomedical Sciences
University of Newcastle.
Dean was honored as an exceptionally innovative biophysicist. The ultrasonic differential transit-time flowmeter, ultrasonic Doppler flowmeter, and instantaneous cardiac dimensions by ultrasound were among a few of his many breakthroughs and inventions.
Because of the generosity of family and friends, we will be able to bring in on an annual basis top Scientists to lecture. If you wish to donate to this endowment, contact Ed Blaine, 573-882-9014 or
