This spring, 22 faculty members in the Duke University School of Medicine have been awarded distinguished professorships. They will be honored at the university’s annual distinguished professorship event on May 18.
In total, 38 new distinguished professors across Duke University were approved by the Board of Trustees in February.
Distinguished professorships are awarded to faculty who have demonstrated extraordinary scholarship in advancing science and improving human health.
Bradley John Goldstein, MD, PhD, was named Duke School of Medicine Distinguished Professor of Head and Neck Surgery & Communication Sciences.
Goldstein is also a professor in cell biology and neurobiology. As a surgeon-scientist, he focuses his clinical work on rhinology and sinus surgery with an interest on olfactory loss. His basic research program is broadly focused on understanding damage and repair in the peripheral olfactory system, using cell culture and mouse models as well as human tissue and single-cell techniques.
