Notable and Quotable

Dr. Matthew Falagas, a professor at the School of Medicine says it is a mistake that adult patients currently receive the same medication dose regardless of a variation in size. To make his point, Falagas compares himself, 6-foot-2 and 198 pounds, with a female student who is 5 feet tall and 120 pounds.
