Dear colleagues:
This summer, Chancellor Jones announced the formation of an exciting Health Innovation Visioning Committee, charged to consider a new technology-inspired academic health research and education model that makes a significant, visible, and sustained impact on human health. To fulfill this charge, the committee seeks broad input from the campus community.
Our committee will consider all ideas, opportunities, challenges, and questions. You may submit your input anonymously through the online form. You also have an opportunity to attend one of the upcoming Town Hall meetings.
