Targeting Alzheimer’s Disease k ALSO InsidE: New Provost of Graduate Medical Sciences Named BUSM Alumna Pledges Largest Individual Gift to School of Medicine MESSAGEE FRFROOMM TH THEE D DEEANAN Dear Friends, Commencement 2009, the graduation of my first freshman class as dean, was a milestone for me. These incredibly talented, curious, and caring new physicians are now launched into their residencies, the next phase of their training and professional lives. We are tracking national trends to determine their effects on the Medical Campus. The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA), also known as the Stimulus Package, is a unique opportunity for our exception- ally creative faculty to capture funding to advance their basic science and clinical research pursuits. Because of the compressed timeframe of ARRA requirements, we developed new strategies to harness this opportunity. The good news is that in fiscal year 2009, the number of research applications increased by 26 percent, and our research awards increased by 10 percent over last year, with $144 million in grants awarded to the School of Medicine, plus an additional $12 million for the National Emerging and Infectious Diseases Laboratories. An example of our research is the extensive and successful Alzheimer’s disease programs on campus. This work integrates the talents of a wide cross-section of researchers on the Medical and Charles River campuses, weaving the disciplines of discovery, clinical care, and educational initia- tives to understand and better treat or prevent this destructive disease. We feature some of the highlights of their work in this issue. We also recently received the largest individual donation to the School of Medicine in our history. An alumna of the School, who wishes to remain anonymous, has generously committed $10.5 million to create a breast cancer research center and to support the construction of the student resi- dence on campus. (See page 8.) After considerable study and discussion by the MD-PhD Executive Commit- tee, under the direction of David Farb, PhD, new students in the MD-PhD program now receive full funding for tuition in addition to a research stipend during their PhD years. Easing the educational debt of these students provides greater flexibility to pursue the research that advances biomedical knowledge and treatments for patients. (See page 9.) We are pleased that the work that we do to fulfill BUSM’s mission of provid- ing high-quality medical and health sciences education, leading basic and clinical research, and supporting patient-centered care is being recognized with the rise in our national ranking among medical schools as judged by U.S. News & World Report. We are now ranked 35th among the nation’s 126 medical schools, between Brown and Dartmouth. Your affiliation with BUSM enriches our community, and we greatly value this relationship.

    THE PIONEERING EFFORTS OF WISE WOMEN IN MEDICINE AND THE MEDICAL SCIENCES EDITORS Gerald Friedland MD, FRCPE, FRCR Jennifer Tender, MD Leah Dickstein, MD Linda Shortliffe, MD 1 PREFACE A boy and his father are in a terrible car crash. The father is killed and the child suffers head trauma and is taken to the local emergency room for a neurosurgical procedure. The attending neurosurgeon walks into the emergency room and states “I cannot perform the surgery. This is my son.” Who is the neurosurgeon? Forty years ago, this riddle stumped elementary school students, but now children are perplexed by its simplicity and quickly respond “the doctor is his mother.” Although this new generation may not make presumptions about the gender of a physician or consider a woman neurosurgeon to be an anomaly, medicine still needs to undergo major changes before it can be truly egalitarian. When Dr. Gerald Friedland’s wife and daughter became physicians, he became more sensitive to the discrimination faced by women in medicine. He approached Linda Shortliffe, MD (Professor of Urology, Stanford University School of Medicine) and asked whether she would be willing to hold the first reported conference to highlight Women in Medicine and the Sciences. She agreed. The conference was held in the Fairchild Auditorium at the Stanford University School of Medicine on March 10, 2000. In 2012 Leah Dickstein, MD contacted Gerald Friedland and informed him that she had a video of the conference. This video was transformed into the back-bone of this book. The chapters have been edited and updated and the lectures translated into written prose.

    Vol. 2, Noo 1 Winter 1984 2 Women in Educa~ion Winter 1984 Wo n n Education ther As women educators approach midyear in the school season, it is important to realize that we are moving forward in our country’s institutions. Our strength and leadership as women and educators is slowly thawing the classroom’s chilly climate. Here are just a few important examples of some heart-warming measures of progress: The number of "women studying science is up, as well as those completing science and engineer- ing doctorates. Women’s studies are gaining recognition as a legitimate field of study, as evidenced by the recommendation for tenure of Estelle Freedman, feminist historian at Stanford University. Pro- vost Albert H. Hastorf, in his decision which overturned decisions by two faculty committees, em- phasized that greater weight should be given to Freedman’s research on women, as well as her work in establishing a feminist studies program. A landmark decision regarding salary discrimination has been upheld by a federal judge. The City University of New York unlawfully and intentionally discriminated against female faculty members and administrators by paying them less than men for the same work for the past fifteen years, according to a decision by Judge Lee P. Gagliardi of the U.S. District Court in Manhattan. This, the Melani case, was named after the leader of a group of female faculty members, Lilia Melani, assistant professor of English at Brooklyn College. Judith P. Vladeck, the attorney who represented the women since the complaint was filed in 197~ says that-in addition to forcing CUNY to equalize salaries for men and women, the university could also be forced to come up with over $60 million in back pay.
