In effect since mid-December, this appointment is intended to help further opportunities for UW students and faculty in infectious disease research, work with sponsors on joint proposals that use the college’s facilities, and provide educational seminars for veterinary residents.

This appointment furthers collaborations with Oregon State University faculty in public health and toxicology research, particularly for a long-running collaboration studying Superfund sites, primarily in the Pacific Northwest.
