I am pleased to announce the appointment of Harvey J. Grill, Ph.D. as Co-Director of Integrative Research Programs in the Penn Institute for Diabetes, Obesity, and Metabolism. Dr. Grill has been at Penn since 1977, and is currently Professor of Psychology and Neuroscience. He is an internationally recognized expert in the neural bases of obesity, and has been an active participant in IDOM activities since its inception in 2005.
In his new role, Dr. Grill will team with Co-Director Dr. Stella L. Volpe to facilitate campus-wide interactions and productive collaborations among faculty whose research fits with the IDOM mission to develop successful approaches to the prevention, treatment, and cure of diabetes mellitus and obesity.
Please join me in welcoming Dr. Grill to his leadership role in IDOM.
