Abbott Labs has donated equipment, space, volunteers and life to the Exploring programs for Laboratory, Engineering and Computer Science. The AIM (Abbott Information Management) Executive Committee headed by CIO Preston Simon and the AIM HR Committee are especially noted for their support.  The Women's Leadership Network of I.T. professionals provides volunteers and role models for young women. Finally, with greatest appreciation, the Abbott Explorer groups are most thankful to John Landgraf, president of the Global Pharmaceutical Operations (GPO) division, for his ongoing support.  Visit Abbott on its web site: www.abbott.com.
