A message from Dean Roper:
Most of you are aware that on March 15 I began my tenure
as Dean of the UNC School of Medicine, Vice Chancellor for
Medical Affairs, and CEO of the UNC Health Care System. I
count it a high honor and real privilege to assume these
positions of leadership and look forward to working with
you.
It is a special treat succeeding my good friend, Jeff Houpt.
Jeff and I both came here in the summer of 1997. Before that,
we worked together in Atlanta, he as Dean of the Emory School
of Medicine and I as Director of the Centers for Disease
Control and Prevention. During our almost seven years as
deans of UNC's schools of medicine and public health, Jeff
and I have partnered in a growing list of programs and activities.
I am convinced that our schools of medicine and public health
have a deeper and stronger relationship than that enjoyed
by any of our counterpart institutions around America, public
or private. [read the full message]
