Professor Melanie Woodin, a neuroscientist in the department of cell and systems biology, will become the University of Toronto's next dean of the Faculty of Arts & Science.
Woodin, who is currently the faculty's vice-dean of interdivisional partnerships, will serve a five-year term beginning on July 1.
"I'm incredibly humbled and honoured to have this role," says Woodin.
"We have outstanding faculty members who are working at the forefront of their research disciplines and have an incredible dedication to undergraduate and graduate students. My primary role is to ensure I'm supporting those faculty members so they can be supporting the students to have the best educational experience they can."
