  • Captive 4 Watanabe.Pdf
    BIOGRAPHICAL SUMMARY: Tetsui Watanabe Tetsui Watanabe, the second of three children, was born in 1914 to Shichiro and Tei Watanabe in Urausu-mura, Kabato-gun, Hokkaido, Japan, where Shichiro began his teaching career. When his father accepted a position at a Japanese-language school in Laupähoehoe, Hawai‘i, Tetsui Watanabe and mother joined him in the islands in 1918. Within a year or two, when another teaching position became available, the family moved from Laupähoehoe to Kaiwiki, Hawai‘i where brother, Saburo, was born. In 1921, the family moved to Waikïkï on the island of O‘ahu where the Watanabes—Shichiro as Japanese-language school teacher-principal and Tei as teacher—served the community. Tetsui Watanabe grew up in Waikïkï. He attended Waikïkï Elementary, Washington Intermediate, and McKinley High Schools. He also attended Waikïkï Japanese-language School. Following high school graduation in 1931, he enrolled at the University of Hawai‘i and later, the University of Chicago where he received a bachelor’s degree. He received his medical degree from Rush Medical College in 1938. After completing his residency in Chicago, he returned to Honolulu in 1941. With no openings in radiology, he soon sought and accepted a position in Los Angeles. Following the attack on Pearl Harbor, Tetsui Watanabe was turned away when he tried to enlist in the U.S. military. Like other Japanese Americans on the West Coast, he was sent to an assembly center—Tulare, which he helped set up. Later, he was sent to Tule Lake War Relocation Center. At both camps, he worked in the medical facilities.

JILL SIBLE 3 WELCOME FROM DIRECTOR OF THE OFFICE OF UNDERGRADUATE RESEARCH, KERI SWABY 4 SUMMER RESEARCH PROGRAMS AT VT 5 - 8 INFORMATIONAL BOOTHS 9 ABSTRACTS (ALPHABETICAL) 10 Jill C. Sible, Ph.D. Associate Vice Provost for Undergraduate Education, Professor of Biological Sciences Welcome With great enthusiasm, I welcome all to the 2021 Summer Undergraduate Research Conference at Virginia Tech. This year is particularly exciting to feature both the work of students conducting research remotely as well those who were able to join us in person. Many students presenting today, have spent ten or more weeks immersed in a research project. Summer affords undergraduates the opportunities to dedicate significant time and effort to the planning, execution and analysis of a research project. They have also had the chance to become authentic members of research teams by working with faculty, graduate students, postdoctoral fellows and research staff. Many thanks to all who have mentored undergraduates this summer. Your commitment to undergraduate research is always commendable, and especially this year given the extra challenges you overcame to offer safe and engaging research opportunities during the COVID-19 pandemic. Virginia Tech is pleased to offer these summer experiences not only to our own students, but also to undergraduates from all over the country. We hope that you have enjoyed your time working with Virginia Tech research teams, and we appreciate the diversity of ideas and cultures that you have brought to our research programs.
