University of Buffalo dental school dean steps down

The dean of the University of Buffalo School of Dental Medicine is stepping down after serving in his position for seven years, according to a UB Reporter news story.

Richard Buchanan, D.M.D., has previously served in academic and administrative positions at the University of Texas Health Science Center Dental School at San Antonio, New Jersey Dental School, and Baylor College of Dentistry.

"A strong academician in his own right, he has provided the school an important compass in the form of leadership by personal example," said David Dunn, vice president for health sciences, in the news article. "Fortunately, he has agreed to remain in his current position until a national search can be launched and a suitable successor identified and recruited."
