It keeps us current and it challenges us to continue to lead by example in the classroom, in the laboratory and in the library. Congratulations to the Touro faculty and staff highlighted in the 2015 Faculty Publications book.

Contributions ranging from the medical sciences to the arts and humanities are linked in the digital version of this book to quickly enable readers to examine interesting topics and learn about the interests and expertise of our colleagues across the System. Special thank you to the Library staff who carefully assemble and archive our work in this annual publication. The library’s latest initiative, Touro Scholar (touroscholar.touro.edu), offers an institutional repository, or online archive, of the research and scholarship of the Touro College & University System with New York Medical College. When fully populated, it will include full text of articles and book chapters, and will expand the scope beyond the Faculty Publications Database to include such materials as student work, poster presentations, and data sets. Once submissions are open, I hope you will add your work to this incredibly important new offering.
