Dr. Colin Haile of TIMES honored during UH President’s 2023 State of the University

UH President Khator honors Dr. Haile and his team’s work during State of the University speech: “I must also mention the incredible work of Dr. Colin Haile of TIMES. He and his team are developing the first vaccine to fight against synthetic opioids, including fentanyl. I am sure you know that fentanyl is 50 times stronger than heroin and 100 times stronger than morphine and it cannot be seen with the naked eye. Consumption of fentanyl in the amount as little as a single grain of rice is enough to kill a person. Thanks to Dr. Haile and his team’s work, fentanyl does not have to be fatal … lives can be saved.”
