On February 1, Dr. Mark Taubman will complete his nine-year term as URMC’s CEO and Dean of the School of Medicine and Dentistry, capping two decades of leadership at URMC -- leading our Cardiology division, the Department of Medicine, Dean of the School of Medicine and Dentistry, and finally, as our CEO and Dean. On Dr. Taubman’s watch, our UR Medicine health system grew in size, scope and quality. Our medical and nursing schools became larger and more selective, and research funding grew. We invested in forward-leaning facilities to meet tomorrow’s needs. He changed our inclusivity trajectory—naming more women to leadership positions and making unprecedented gains in student diversity. Today, our workforce is more inclusive, equipped with tools to make URMC an exemplar of high-quality, equitable care. Perhaps his crowning achievement was leading the medical, operational and financial integration of our teaching, research and patient care missions.  That’s because Dr. Taubman, like the Medical Center’s founders, is a clinician-scientist who believes in the power of discovery and learning to transform the patient experience. He knows that treating disease will never be as powerful as curing or preventing disease. And that’s the very reason academic medicine exists! Dr. Taubman, we thank you for defining Medicine of the Highest Order, and for leaving us in the most capable hands with your successor David Linehan, MD, who shares his staunch optimism regarding academic medicine. #ThankYou #URMCPeopleInspired #AcademicMedicine #HealthcareInnovation #MedicineOfTheHighestOrder #ThankYouDrTaubman
