Dr. Emina Huang Named as Chair in Surgical Research
“It’s such an honor to be the inaugural holder of this chair,” said Dr. Huang. “Our plan is to use the funds to support growth in riskier but potentially high-impact and collaborative research in the areas of cancer, inflammation, the use of novel models, and high-resolution molecular techniques.”
Dr. Huang came to our department from the Cleveland Clinic Lerner College of Medicine. She is an internationally known researcher whose work is supported by the NIH and was recently described in Nature Communications and Nature Biotechnology. She is a graduate of the Stanford University School of Medicine and performed a surgical residency at the Ohio State University.
Please join us in congratulating Dr. Huang on receiving this honor. We applaud her dedication and initiative and see the award as more proof of the quality of the researchers in the Department of Surgery.
