Although Dr. Torrey is 69 years old, he has the passion and energy for his work of a much younger man. I asked him about what kind of hours he works.
"I work long hours. Always have. I'm taking off a little more time now. My wife is now retired so we do some traveling. But I've always worked very long hours mostly because much of what I do, I don't consider work. I've been fortunate most of my life doing things that I would do even if they weren't paying me. And I get very excited about being able to move forward on research on these diseases."
