Jane Weintraub, DDS, MPH, a widely recognized dental health expert and researcher at the University of California, San Francisco (UCSF) School of Dentistry, will be recommended to the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill (UNC) Board of Trustees as the next dean of the UNC School of Dentistry.
Chancellor Holden Thorp and Executive Vice Chancellor and Provost Bruce Carney selected Dr. Weintraub following a national search. The recommended appointment date is July 1.
"During her 30-year career, Dr. Weintraub has contributed significantly to the efforts to prevent dental disease among people most at risk," Thorp said. "She has earned national recognition for her work to reduce oral health disparities and is an outstanding educator, scientist, and mentor. Such qualifications have prepared her well to guide the School of Dentistry in continuing to fulfill its mission of providing excellent teaching, patient care, research, and public service."
Dr. Weintraub was a faculty member at UNC for seven years before starting at UCSF in 1995. She is the Lee Hysan Professor of Dental Public Health and Oral Epidemiology in the UCSF School of Dentistry and chair of the oral epidemiology and dental public health division in the school's preventive and restorative dental sciences department.
