It’s the season of change here in Madison, WI...and I’m not just talking about the weather warming! After 18 years as Chair, I have decided to step down from the position. Throughout my time in the Department of Radiology, I have been grateful to be a part of such a unique community. Every member of the Department contributes to improving health across Wisconsin and beyond through their commitment to compassion, collaboration, and innovation, whether in clinical practice, education, or research.

I have no doubt that the Department will continue to flourish throughout this transition. Read on to discover some of our recent successes, including our participation in developing the next-generation CT scanner from GE or the Machine Learning for Medical Imaging (ML4MI) initiative, which draws together experts to tackle the toughest problems facing medical imaging.

It is also time for our residents and fellows to move on to the next phase in their career. We’re excited to see what they do next – and to welcome a new class of trainees.

Throughout these many changes, including the ongoing search for a new Chair, the Department continues to foster advances that will benefit all. You’ll read about our researchers leading the way in molecular imaging, our faculty and trainees taking the stage at national meetings, and our efforts to enrich our community through outreach.

I’m excited to see what the future will hold. I feel confident that this time of change will usher in new opportunities and beginnings for our Department. On Wisconsin!
