It’s been a busy past year recruiting, reorganizing a bit and generally preparing for a stronger today and future.
In this issue of MCG Medicine you will find profiles on some of our recruits, like Dr. Brian Annex, the new chair of the Department of Medicine, whose strong clinical, research and educational foci have already brought smiles to a lot of faces. And, individuals like Dr. David Mattson, the new chair of the Department of Physiology, who smiles himself all the time and will help ensure we remain leaders in better understanding pervasive, destructive hypertension. You’ll also read more about MCG graduates who have taken on national leadership roles in their field, like Dr. Jacqueline Fincher, Class of 1985, who assumes the presidency of the American College of Physicians from her home base in Thomson, Georgia this year.
