We are very thankful for Dr. Jonathan Orens who served as our inaugural Vice Chair for Clinical Business Development beginning in 2018. During his time in the role, he worked with divisional, departmental and institutional leadership to oversee and coordinate efforts to deliberately and selectively grow DOM clinical operations outside of JHH and JHBMC, focusing on the National Capitol Region. His expertise in clinical program development served him well as he met with a broad range of Johns Hopkins Health System and School of Medicine leaders to compile a profile of opportunity for our department and spark new initiatives. Dr. Orens shifted roles in October to focus on leading one of our largest divisions as interim director of the Division of Pulmonary and Critical Care Medicine.
The Assistant Vice Chair for Women’s Careers in Academic Medicine will set the tone for DOM initiatives related to the advancement of women faculty and trainees. This position will support and often lead our strategic efforts related to actively promoting DOM women in partnership with the School of Medicine, Johns Hopkins University and the Johns Hopkins Health System.
