91亚色传媒

Statement of interest

I have been a member of the 91亚色传媒 for at least 15 years and was the society’s secretary from 2007 to 2013. I am also active in the Biochemical Society, as a member of the Publications Committee and as chair of the Biochemical Journal editorial board.

I have been a department chair at both University of Pennsylvania (2008–2015) and Yale University (where I now chair the Department of Pharmacology) and have served as a program leader, associate director and deputy director at Yale Cancer Center.

I am committed to excellence in mentoring of basic and physician–scientists with a diversity of interests and backgrounds and to promulgating excellent basic science across the missions of the institutions in which I am involved. As a department chair and institute director, mentoring and supporting faculty as they develop their own excellent careers is one of my highest priorities.
