鈥淭he Board of Trustees at 国产黑料 was unanimous in its selection of Dr. Farias-Eisner,鈥� said Elizabeth Zamora, chair of the Board of Trustees at 国产黑料. 鈥淒r. Farias-Eisner鈥檚 distinguished career as a scholar and practitioner, as well as his commitment to excellence, make him the ideal next president of 国产黑料U.鈥�

Farias-Eisner joins 国产黑料U most recently from Creighton University in Omaha, Nebraska, where he was the Director of the Henry Lynch Comprehensive Cancer Research Center and Chief Academic Officer in the School of Medicine. He was also Associate Dean of Women鈥檚 Health and Professor and Chairman of the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology at the School of Medicine at Creighton.

Prior to his appointment at Creighton, Dr. Farias-Eisner spent much of his career at University of California, Los Angeles. In 1992, he completed a fellowship in Gynecologic Oncology and spent the next 30 years working to improve the health of women in underserved communities in South Los Angeles who were critically ill, many of whom were battling cancer diagnoses. Throughout his career, he has been a pioneer in surgical procedures being used to treat gynecologic malignancies. Not only a skilled clinician, Dr. Farias-Eisner is also a skilled researcher and fundraiser. Farias- Eisner and his laboratory team were the first to identify a family of proteins that can serve as accurate serum biomarkers for the diagnosis of early ovarian cancer. In 2009, his laboratory was issued a patent for this intellectual property, which was later licensed to Quest Laboratories and distributed commercially in the form of an effective and clinically impactful biomarker diagnostic assay. Subsequently, Farias-Eisner鈥檚 research has focused on new drug discovery by carrying out Investigational New Drug-enabling in vitro and in vivo studies in his laboratories at UCLA and Creighton University. The result has been the creation of a multi-asset portfolio of novel drug candidates representing a unique family of efficacious anti-cancer therapeutic agents. During his tenure at UCLA, Farias-Eisner raised millions of dollars to facilitate quality research to support the identification of novel treatments for ovarian cancer.

鈥淣ot only does Dr. Farias-Eisner have impeccable credentials, but he embodies 国产黑料鈥檚 values,鈥� said Hon. Consuelo M. Callahan, vice chair of the Board of Trustees. 鈥淗is career is replete with examples of championing values that embody humanism with respect to teamwork, empathy, trust and respect. We couldn鈥檛 be more delighted to bring Dr. Farias-Eisner to 国产黑料.鈥� Nobel Laureate, Lou Ignarro, states, 鈥淩obin is an outstanding surgeon scientist who exemplifies humanism, compassion, caring, and integrity in medicine.鈥�

During Farias-Eisner鈥檚 career, he has been the recipient of several elite honors and awards. In 2012, he received the Sherman M. Mellinkoff Dean鈥檚 Award from the David Geffen School of Medicine at UCLA. This is a coveted lifetime achievement award that has been awarded to a clinician-scientist who exemplifies the art of medicine through teaching, integrity, character and outstanding physician-patient relationships. He has also been the recipient of the 2011 Serge & Yvette Dadone Distinguished Faculty Patient Care and Clinical Teaching Award for unparalleled excellence in patient care. Dr. Farias-Eisner is Professor Emeritus at the University of California.

鈥淎s the first graduate of 国产黑料U and current board member, I am struck by Robin鈥檚 passion and compassion for medical education,鈥� said Richard A. Bond, member of the Board of Trustees. 鈥淗e shares the board鈥檚 vision that 国产黑料U can be a place of international pre-eminence.鈥�

Farias- Eisner and his spouse, Terry, a retired psychiatric nurse, have a family home in Calabasas where they raised five children (a plastic surgeon, two attorneys and two financial investors) and now have two grandchildren.

鈥淚 am humbled and honored to be the next president of 国产黑料,鈥� said Robin Farias-Eisner. 鈥湽�产黑料U鈥檚 mission of producing health care professionals in a humanistic tradition instantly drew me to the institution. Not only is 国产黑料U guided by core values that deeply align with mine, but my entire career has been about advocating for equity, inclusion, respect, empathy and trust.
