Dear Colleagues,

I would also like to offer a couple of related announcements. First, the search committee members have been confirmed (please see below), and my thanks to each of them for agreeing to serve. Second, finalists for the position will be asked to give a public presentation about their vision for the position and research at UConn and UConn Health, and the UConn and UConn Health communities will be invited to attend/view these presentations which will be in-person at the Storrs campus and livestreamed (and recorded). More details will be provided later.
