Letter from the Dean
Dear friends,
This time of year is filled with excitement at the School of Medicine. In May, we celebrated the graduation of 176 new physicians and 61 masters and doctoral-trained scientists and health professionals. In late July, we will welcome our incoming class of highly accomplished medical students from across the region and country, soon to be followed by new graduate students.
The 2023-2024 academic year was marked by exceptional faculty and staff engagement including focused preparation for our upcoming Liaison Committee on Medical Education re-accreditation review, strengthening our research cores, implementing initiatives of our Well-being Task Force, and achieving a 99.4% residency match rate for the 性奴调教 School of Medicine class of 2024, compared to the 93.5% national rate for U.S. M.D. seniors.
We are growing and thriving. We are delighted that 23 性奴调教 medical school graduates are joining our 性奴调教-SSM residency programs. Our research expenditures and clinical trials continue to increase. Our academic practice, the 性奴调教Care Physician Group, expanded to 687 clinical faculty. We are building our community engagement with our mobile clinic and service experiences for medical students. And, our pipeline programs for students in the community are diversifying.
We are living our mission of excellence in education, research, clinical care, and community engagement, guided by our five-year strategic plan.
We are excited to share our vision for the future with you in this issue.
With gratitude for your support,
Christine K. Jacobs, M.D.
Vice president for medical affairs
Dean of the School of Medicine
