A Message from our Director, Dr. Eric Skaar:As we approach the end of the year and reflect on our challenges and successes, I want to take a moment to express my deep appreciation to all the members of our research community for being such wonderful colleagues and creating a vibrant and positive environment for training and discovery. I am thankful each day that I have the privilege of working with world-class faculty, students, postdoctoral fellows, staff, and alumni that comprise the community of the Division of Molecular Pathogenesis. Your commitment to excellence, engagement with our trainees, relentless curiosity, and drive for basic science research have inspired me and are what make the Division of Molecular Pathogenesis and the Department of Pathology, Microbiology, and Immunology at VUMC, such a special place.
We have a very exciting 2022 ahead of us. Research in the Division continues to expand at an impressive rate, our grant portfolio is strong and growing, and primary and secondary faculty in the Division continue to make outstanding discoveries that are published in the highest profile journals. We are excited to welcome Dr. Ben Bratton to our growing community and we look forward to the outstanding discoveries that will come from his group. We are currently engaged in a search for a new tenure track faculty member in the area of Immunology and we will interview candidates in January and February. The renovation of the 4th floor of the A corridor of MCN (phase 2) is ongoing and scheduled for completion this summer and the renovation of the 5200 wing (phase 3) is approved and scheduled to initiate upon completion of phase 2. Combined with the phase 1 renovation, this will represent approximately 20,000 square feet of cutting-edge research space. Our graduate programs once again increased in size from the year before and the combined programs represent the largest graduate biomedical training programs at Vanderbilt. Of course, all of this would not be possible without the incredible support provided by our outstanding administrative team. I look forward to working with you all to have another outstanding year for MP!
Thank you to everyone for being part of this fantastic Division. On behalf of myself, my family, and my lab, Happy New Year!
Eric
