Holtzman Named Chair
David M. Holtzman, MD, was named the Andrew B. and Gretchen P. Jones Professor of Neurology and Head of the Department of Neurology at the Washington University in St. Louis. He will also continue as the Charlotte and Paul Hagemann Professor of Neurology and as professor of molecular biology and pharmacology. Holtzman comments on his goals for the department:
“One of the successful things about our department is that we have sections that collaborate extremely well to address particular topics, combining outstanding patient care and equally outstanding clinical and basic research. I’d like to enable improvement within sections and ensure that each has sufficient resources to address each component of this three-tier approach.”
Holtzman’s research focuses on the underlying mechanisms of Alzheimer disease in an effort to improve diagnosis and treatment. Holtzman also investigates brain damage before, during, and immediately after birth.
