APPOINTMENTS OF dR. david g. gorenstein & dR. don w. powell

David G. Gorenstein, Ph.D. and Don W. Powell, M.D. have been appointed as Associate Deans for Research, effective 1 February and 1 April, 2002, respectively.

Dr. Gorenstein, the Charles Marc Pomerat Distinguished Professor of Biological Sciences, received his undergraduate education from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and his Ph.D. from Harvard University. He joined the faculty of the University of Illinois at Chicago in 1969, where he served until being appointed Director of the Biochemical Magnetic Resonance Laboratory at Purdue University in 1985. Dr. Gorenstein became a member of the UTMB faculty in 1994, and has since served in multiple leadership roles at this institution, including as the founding Director of the Sealy Center for Structural Biology (SCSB), Vice Chair of the Department of Human Biological Chemistry and Genetics, and Deputy Director of the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS) Center at UTMB. Under his leadership, structural biology has achieved a new prominence at UTMB, contributing to multiple multidisciplinary research efforts, and the SCSB has become a pivotal focus for collaboration among UTMB scientists. He has also spear-headed UTMB’s efforts in creating the Gulf Coast Consortium for Structural Biology, which has received substantial support from the Keck Foundation for the development of enhanced NMR capabilities and training opportunities in structural biology at a group of leading biomedical research institutions in the Houston-Galveston area. Well known for his work on the solution structures of DNA and DNA-protein adducts, Dr. Gorenstein has served on numerous expert panels for the National Institutes of Health, the Department of Energy, and the National Science Foundation.

Dr. Powell, Professor within the Department of Internal Medicine, received his Bachelor's Degree with honors from Auburn University and his Doctor of Medicine with highest honors from the Medical College of Alabama at Birmingham. Following a residency in Internal Medicine at the Peter Bent Brigham Hospital, Dr. Powell served with the U.S. Army at the Walter Reed Army Institute of Research. He subsequently completed a two-year Special NIH Fellowship in Physiology at Yale University School of Medicine, before moving to the University of North Carolina School of Medicine at Chapel Hill. During his 20 years of service on the UNC faculty, Dr. Powell served as Chief of the Division of Digestive Diseases and Nutrition, and founding Director of the Center for Gastrointestinal Biology and Disease and the Program in Digestive Diseases and Nutrition. He served as Associate Chairman for Clinical Affairs of the Department of Medicine at North Carolina, until joining the faculty at UTMB as Professor and Chair of the Department of Internal Medicine and holder of the Edward Randall and Edward Randall, Jr. Distinguished Chair in Internal Medicine. Over the past decade, he has led the department in continued growth of its research and educational programs and increasing excellence in its patient care activities. As a successful physician-scientist, Dr. Powell is recognized internationally for his research in the field of gastroenterology, particularly in the areas of intestinal transport and inflammation. He has received numerous honors and awards, including the Julius Friedenwald Medal, the highest recognition awarded by the American Gastroenterological Association, for his lifetime contribution to this field. A prolific author, Dr. Powell has written numerous scientific articles and has served as editor and associate editor of many textbooks, including the Textbook of Gastroenterology and the Cecil Textbook of Medicine.

In their new roles, Dr. Gorenstein and Dr. Powell will bring a greatly strengthened level of leadership, expertise, and organization to the research programs of the School of Medicine. They will be jointly responsible for enhancing interactions between basic and clinical investigators, to meet the challenges of an interdisciplinary research environment, and for promoting the growth of physician-scientists and translational research within the School of Medicine.
