Just announced a few minutes ago. The new Dean of the College of Biological Sciences at UC Davis is James Hildreth from Meharry Medical College.
Some tidbits about him:
- Harvard College, cum laude in Chemistry
- Rhodes Scholar
- PhD in Immunology from Oxford (I think)
- MD from Johns Hopkins
- Many major discoveries related to HIV. See for example:
His background and interests sound fantastic. Great to see UCD is hiring highest quality people they can get. I see a trend.
