On behalf of the College of Medicine Dean search committee, I would like to share our progress regarding the recruitment as we approach several milestones. Our full committee will be meeting with our WittKieffer consultants later this month and then again in September to decide which candidates to invite for first round interviews in early October. We anticipate second round, on-campus interviews in late October and early November. This will be an opportunity for the NEOMED community, including students, staff, faculty, trainees and alumni to meet the finalists in small and large group settings as well as a public forum.<\/p>\n

At this time, we invite you to consider nominating outstanding candidates for this critical NEOMED leadership role. Please use the link\u00a0NEOMEDDean@wittkieffer.com<\/a>\u00a0to send nominations directly to WittKieffer. Please find here the Leadership Profile<\/a> for dissemination to your networks and colleagues.<\/p>\n

We look forward to the next stages of this search and your engagement in this process.<\/p>\n

Most sincerely,<\/p>\n

Joseph Zarconi, M.D., F.A.C.P.
