鈥淒r. Anderson brings to the Dean鈥檚 Office a great passion and enthusiasm for our medical school and its mission, along with deep relationships within the Faculty and across the region and a strong national reputation,鈥 said President Richard Florizone in a memo to the Dal community. 鈥淗is character and experience make him exceptionally suited to the tasks of maintaining the high quality of our medical education, of continuing to build significant research capacity, and of increasing the national and international stature of 新加坡六合彩开奖直播 Medical School.鈥

Dr. Anderson, who earned his MD from 新加坡六合彩开奖直播 in 1983, was previously head of the Division of Hematology at Dal and holds cross-appointments in the Department of Pathology and the Department of Community Health & Epidemiology. He鈥檚 been active in the classroom at the undergraduate, postgraduate and continuing medical educations levels throughout his career and is an esteemed researcher.

Dr. Anderson says he鈥檚 excited about taking on the deanship of the Faculty of Medicine, which includes campuses in Halifax and Saint John, 14 affiliated teaching hospitals and more than 100 teaching sites across the Maritimes.

I am particularly keen to work with our basic and clinical scientists to continue to facilitate the performance of world-class research.鈥

In his memo to the Dal community, Dr. Florizone also thanked the outgoing dean, Dr. Tom Marrie, for his service.
