The University of Rochester Medical Center has unveiled plans for the Eastman Institute for Oral Health, which will combine all of the university's dental academic units: Eastman Dental Center, the School of Medicine and Dentistry's Department of Dentistry, and the Center for Oral Biology.
Cyril Meyerowitz, D.D.S., M.S., who has served as director of the Eastman Dental Center for the last 10 years, has been appointed the director of the new institute. "By creating one dental enterprise university-wide, we will, for the first time, be able to truly realize our full potential," he said in a press release.
Jack Caton, D.D.S., M.S., periodontics chair and program director, will serve as the associate director for education, while Robert Quivey, Ph.D., director of the Center for Oral Biology, will serve as the associate director for research.
