I am thrilled to remain part of such a fabulous community as a researcher and educator, and I look forward to building on the momentum we've created together. The School is in terrific hands under the stewardship of interim Dean David Savitz and incoming Dean @ashishkjha. (3/3)

During such a difficult time for society, I am confident that our School will continue to rise to the occasion and fulfill its responsibility to impact critical public health challenges, train future public health leaders, and improve health equity across communities. (2/3)

As I conclude my tenure as @Brown_SPH Dean, I want to sincerely thank our students, staff, faculty, alumni, supporters, and partners near and far for an incredible time of growth and achievement for our School. I could not ask for a better team. (1/3)
