Dr. Paul W. Erhardt (Fairway Lane, Sylvania) also has been appointed professor of medicinal and biological chemistry in the College of Pharmacy. The Center for Drug Design and Development utilizes the services of scientists and medical professionals from the University, the Medical College of Ohio and St. Vincent Medical Center to perform collaborative research with drug industry and biotechnology firms throughout the country. The center is one of the University's nearly 20 research centers and institutes. Erhardt replaces Dr. Graham Durant, who served as director from 1990 to 1992. Durant is known for the invention of Tagamet. Erhardt said, "I hope to demonstrate the significant role that medicinal chemistry can play in merging biotechnology with the production of practical therapeutic agents." Prior to coming to the University, Erhardt worked at Berlex Laboratories Inc. in Cedar Knolls, N.J., as section head from 1983 to 1988, as assistant director of medicinal chemistry from 1988 to 1991, and as assistant director of drug discovery and technology from 1991 to this year. He also worked at American Critical Care (now Dupont Critical Care) in Illinois as research investigator from 1976 to 1979, as senior research investigator from 1979 to 1982, and as group leader of medicinal organic chemistry from 1982 to 1983. Erhardt designed cardiovascular and dopaminergic drugs there. One of the compounds he designed and developed is now marketed as Brevibloc (USAN: Esmolol Hydrochloride). In 1980, he received the American Critical Care Award for Scientific and Technical Excellence. From 1975 to 1976, he was an assistant professor in the department of medicinal chemistry and pharmacology at Northeastern University in Boston. Erhardt received his bachelor of arts degree in chemistry in 1969 and his doctor of philosophy degree in medicinal chemistry in 1974, both from the University of Minnesota. He was a postdoctoral research associate at the Drug Dynamics Institute at the University of Texas at Austin from 1974 to 1975. ### The University of Toledo Toledo, Ohio 43606-3390 Office of Public Information (419) 537-2675 FAX: (419) 537-4618 September 1, 1994 From: Sonya Thomas Sandcasting Workshop to be Held at the Center for Sculptural Studies A1 Melis (Lewis Avenue, Temperance, Mich.), associate professor of art at The University of Toledo, wiii hold a creative sandcasting workshop at UTs Center for Sculptural Studies on Sunday, Sept. 4, from 1 to 4 p.m. The workshop, sponsored by UT's department of art and the Michigan Silversmiths Guild, will expose nearly 100 participants to the methods of sandcasting and its creative potential. Melis, an established artist and metalsmith, said sandcasting is a method artists use to cast objects. "It involves pouring molten metal into sand. The results vary," he said. "You can create just about anything in sandcasting, from jewelry and belt buckles to decorative sculpture." Melis has headed UT's jewelry and metalsmith program since 1961. He also has taught courses in sculpture, painting, drawing and design at UT.
