Glaude earned his Ph.D. in religion from Princeton University and is a founding member and Senior Fellow of the Jamestown Project. A noted scholar, Glaude began his teaching career at Bowdoin College where he served as chair of the Department of Religion. Dr. Glaude has received numerous awards including the Carl A. Fields Award, and was a Visiting Scholar in African-American Studies at Harvard University and Amherst College. His first book, Exodus! Religion, Race, and Nation in Early 19th Century Black America, won the Modern Language Association's William Sanders Scarborough Book Prize.
Glaude has appeared on the Tavis Smiley Show, Fox TV’s Hannity & Colmes Show, CNN, and C-SPAN. Along with noted scholars, Dr. Cornel West and Michael Eric Dyson, he also appeared in the documentary, Stand, produced and directed by Tavis Smiley. He is a contributor to the Huffington Post[6] and is well known for being a regular contributor and panelist during the State of the Black Union. In 2007, Dr. Glaude delivered the Founder’s Day Convocation keynote address during the 140th anniversary of Morehouse College. He and his wife, the former Winnifred Brown, have a son, Langston. ^ Eddie Glaude to Move to Princeton University Bowdoin Campus News, August 1, 2002 ^ The Jamestown Project-Eddie S.

Waterproof super glue put to the test - WMC Action News 5 - Memphis, Tennessee Andy, Will It Work? Waterproof super glue put to the test (WMC-TV) - A super glue that is dishwasher safe AND waterproof? Will its reputation stick once Action News 5 Chief Consumer Investigator Andy Wise puts Loctite ultra liquid control super glue to the test? In a web demonstration, Loctite's tester bonds two plywood chips together with ultra liquid control super glue, and two others with regular super glue. Next, they submerged into a drink. Seconds later, the plywood bonded together with Loctite stayed tight, while the other two bonded with regular super glue, snapped. Well, the Loctite ultra liquid control super glue arrived in Andy Wise's workshop. On Action News 5 at 10 p.m., he will reveal whether the product's claims stuck after he put it through the ultimate series of tests!

He trained as a cardiologist in Japan and has worked at BWH and Harvard Medical School since 1995.
His research interests include the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis and metabolic disorders, macrophage biology, and the pro-inflammatory role of dyslipidemia. Dr. Aikawa’s studies, documented in over 100 articles, received worldwide recognition and spurred lectureship initiations and opportunities to serve as a reviewer for research grants and reports. He is an editorial board member for several major medical journals, including Circulation, Circulation Research, Arteriosclerosis Thrombosis and Vascular. He is International Associate Editor for Circluation Journal, of the Japanese Circulation Society and Specialty Chief Editor for the Atherosclerosis and Vascular Medicine Section of Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine Dr. Aikawa also serves as Chair, Development Committee of North American Vascular Biology Organization (). He is a member of the Organizing Committee and chairs the Sponsorship Committee of the International Vascular Biology Meeting 2016 (IVBM2016) . Dr. Aikawa has received many awards and honors, including Yagi Award from the Japanese Circulation Society, Young Investigator Award for the Distinguished Atherosclerosis Research from the Japan Atherosclerosis Society, and the Fifth Trucker Collins Lectureship at Harvard Medical School’s Vascular Biology Seminar Series.
In November 2013, he received the Special Recognition Award in Vascular Biology from the Arteriosclerosis and Vascular Biology Council of the American Heart Association Dr. Aikawa’s ultimate goal is to translate basic research findings into clinical practice through multidisciplinary efforts. His role as Founding Director of CICS represents this goal, where explorations for new therapeutic targets for cardiometabolic diseases are carried out in transpacific collaboration with Kowa Company, Ltd. a Japanese pharmaceutical company. While he has established a now model of the academia – industry collaboration, Dr. Aikawa continues his pre-existing research laboratory in the, Center for Excellence in Vascular Biology at BWH primarily supported by grants from the National Institutes of Health and the American Heart Association, where he studies novel triggering mechanisms of macrophage activation in the contexts of atherosclerosis and metabolic disorders. After his clinical training at Juntendo University School of Medicine, Tokyo, Japan, Dr. Aikawa began his initial research at the University of Tokyo under the supervision of Dr. Ryozo Nagai.
This research led to the cloning of human smooth muscle and non-muscle myosin heavy chain isoforms (SM1, SM2, and SMemb/MHC-B). Using these molecules as markers of differentiation, his studies demonstrated diversity of SMC phenotype in developing human arteries and during progression of atherosclerosis and restenosis. For this work, he received several awards. Dr. Aikawa’s earlier studies as Research Fellow at the Peter Libby laboratory in BWH used rabbit models to establish that cholesterol lowering by either diet or statins improves various features typical of so-called “vulnerable” atherosclerotic plaque prone to rupture and clinical complications (e.g., reduction of macrophage accumulation, MMP expression, and tissue factor activity). Through a series of rabbit studies, Drs. Libby and Aikawa pioneered the concept that lipid lowering is an anti-inflammatory therapy, providing molecular bases for the observed beneficial outcomes of statin mega trials. As a faculty member, Dr. Aikawa extended his research interest in the role of macrophages in atherogenesis by testing the hypothesis that MMP-collagenases regulate collagen accumulation.
