1st appeared 17 September 1999 Goldman Named Acting Vice Chancellor of Medical Affairs Lee Goldman, chair and professor of the department of medicine, has been appointed acting vice chancellor of medical affairs, until Haile Debas, dean of the UCSF School of Medicine, returns from sabbatical leave in January.
In his expanded role, Goldman will serve as a vital liaison between the UCSF Stanford system and UCSF, including overseeing issues surrounding regulatory affairs and quality assurance for clinical programs. Goldman was first named as the UCSF faculty representative to the UCSF Stanford board by Debas. A noted scholar and authority on health care delivery, Goldman remains an active principal investigator on a grant funded by the National Institutes of Health. He has received many honors and awards, including being elected a member of Institute of Medicine of the National Academy of Sciences. Goldman came to UCSF in 1995 from Harvard Medical School, where he served as professor of medicine and chief medical officer of the Brigham and Women’s Hospital of Boston. A graduate of Yale University School of Medicine, Goldman joined the faculty at Harvard Medical School in 1978 after first working at UCSF as an intern and resident. Debas became UCSF's first vice chancellor for medical affairs last March, in recognition of the central role the dean plays not only in overseeing the School of Medicine, but also in coordinating the clinical activities of UCSF and UCSF Stanford. Debas, who has served as dean of the medical school since 1993, began his sabbatical in July. Links: |
