Effects of the COVID-19 Pandemic and How We Adapted at the University of Missouri

Abstract

I joined the University of Missouri (MU) in May 2020, during the early phases of the COVID-19 pandemic. My leadership administrative roles at MU are in the School of Medicine, MU Health Care, and in the NextGen Precision Health initiative. My role as the Executive Vice Chancellor of Health Affairs at the University of Missouri allows me to develop and implement a comprehensive strategy that affirms MU Health Care as a nationally recognized leader in patient care and to continue the MU School of Medicine’s legacy of education and scholarly excellence.
