INTERIM CHAIR DAVID OZOG, PhD 

Research is an integral component of the College of Human Medicine, transforming our teaching and clinical environment. Discovery keeps us on the leading edge of medicine, as Spartans dedicated to improving health for all people.

"Having the Perricone divison already in place ... we are very fortunate there is some endowed funding in place already and individuals currently working in Pharmacology. When I look at the two entities, and have hovered around 15-20 nationally, I think it's very likely this entity will be top 10 nationally for years to come with those foundational pieces."
