July - August 2009 CTAHR Research News

The CTAHR Research News is back for the 2009-2010 Academic Year. The July - August 2009 CTAHR Research News is now available for download. This month we feature, Dr. H.C. "Skip" Bittenbender from the Department of Tropical Plant and Soil Sciences. Dr. Bittenbender is an extension specialist working unique tropical crops, coffee, kava, and cacao. We also feature a story about a lesser known part of CTAHR, the 4-H livestock program. We also feature a story from Lisa Matsunaga of the UH Office of Technology Transfer and Economic Development. Lisa is the OTTED Licensing Associate who works with CTAHR projects. We bid Aloha to two people - Ruddy Wong, CTAHR's Director of Administrative Services and Po Yung Lai, who is joining CTAHR as the Special Program Director for Contracts and Grants. The Calabash, open grants and new publications are our regular features. Any comments, suggestions or questions, please contact C.Y. Hu. We hope you enjoy the CTAHR Research News.
