Leadership and Governance
Guiding the School of Public Health; leading by example.
Brown has been my home for nearly two decades as an emergency physician, doctoral student, faculty member and academic dean. It is a community whose collective efforts serve our state, our nation and the world. That collaboration among faculty, staff and students is foundational to the School of Public Health’s success: it is integral to our mission and the impact we will continue to make.
