Baltimore-based Johns Hopkins Medicine is beginning its search for a CEO and the next dean of its medical school.
A 22-person committee has convened to lead the global effort, according to a Sept. 18 post on the university's news page. The committee will be co-chaired by incoming Provost Ray Jayawardhana, PhD, and Mayo Shattuck, chair of the health system's board of trustees.
Education Executives, a Santa Barbara, Calif.-based search firm for senior academic leaders, will aid the committee.
The chosen candidate will succeed Paul Rothman, MD, who retired July 1 after a 10-year run as CEO of Johns Hopkins Medicine and dean of the medical faculty.
