Message From the Founding Dean

Welcome to the February edition of our Earl R. and Barbara D. Lewis School of Health & Life Sciences Newsletter. As the Lewis School continues to lead in preparing highly trained professionals to meet rural and distance-challenged healthcare environments, we have news about our new EMS Education Department in this issue. We also feature the announcement of our two Feitelberg Fellows, as well as some interesting information about Clarkson research on a potential treatment for Alzheimer's disease.
