Associate deans for faculty affairs are named

Samuel Ball, PhD, professor of psychiatry, and Jonathan N. Grauer, MD, professor and vice chair of orthopaedics and rehabilitation, became associate deans for faculty affairs, representing non-surgical and surgical departments respectively, effective at the start of 2020. Ball and Grauer oversee faculty development and mentoring initiatives across the school, using best practices for faculty development along differing career paths and working with departments to develop and streamline their mentoring programs. They serve as liaisons between the Office for Faculty Affairs, the Teaching and Learning Center, Yale Medicine, and the Yale Center for Clinical Investigation, and as resources for faculty, departments, and deputy deans across the school.
