GSM Faculty Advance Patient Care Through Research Collaborations

James Neutens, PhDAs we reach the mid-point of our academic year, this issue illustrates how active our faculty and staff are at local, regional, national and international levels with activities ranging from patient care to cutting-edge research. We should be particularly proud of our UT Genetics Center for the collaborative efforts with Johns Hopkins University in discovering the gene for Huntington Disease-Like 2. As one of four testing sites worldwide for this disorder, the Center is recognized as a distinctive leader. Other articles show that our faculty continue to display their prowess in the research and professional service realms as well as providing excellent care for our patients. Special congratulations to them and to our residents and staff who received kudos for their accomplishments. Each issue of The Scope reminds me of how fortunate we are to have the Graduate School of Medicine and the University of Tennessee Medical Center in our community.
