Matthew Howard, chair and department executive officer of the department of neurosurgery, and Edith Parker, dean of the college of public health, will lead the search committee, according to a Jan. 12 news release from the university. 

They will be joined by 11 other department chairs, professors, medical students and university directors. The university also hired search firm Spencer Stuart to aid in the search. 

The search was paused in October after a candidate was chosen, but that person declined the position for family reasons. The search resumed in December, the release said. 

At the Becker’s 32nd Annual Meeting: The Business and Operations of ASCs, taking place October 29-31 in Chicago, ASC leaders, surgeons and healthcare executives will explore strategies to drive growth, enhance operational performance, navigate reimbursement challenges and prepare for the future of ambulatory surgery.
