Description
Mark your calendar for The Wisdom Institute’s 5th Signature Event, May 6, 2022, featuring Dr. Jay A. Perman. Dr. Perman is the fifth chancellor of the University System of Maryland, appointed in January 2020. He came to the chancellorship from the University of Maryland, Baltimore (UMB) where he was president for a decade. A pediatric gastroenterologist, he practices medicine once a week, teaching team-based health care to UMB’s professional students. Dr. Perman received his MD from Northwestern University and completed a fellowship in pediatric gastroenterology at Harvard Medical School and at the Children’s Hospital Medical Center in Boston. He has held faculty and leadership positions at UC San Francisco, Johns Hopkins University, Virginia Commonwealth University, and the University of Kentucky, where he was dean of the College of Medicine. Dr. Perman has been a long-standing friend to UMBC and is a close colleague of Dr. Hrabowski. He is currently heading the search for UMBC’s next president. His talk will be followed by a conversation with Dr. Hrabowski.
The event will be on campus and all COVID protocols will be enforced. There will be an informal reception prior to the luncheon, so set aside a good portion of the day. Early plans suggest the event will run from 11:00 a.m. to 2:30 p.m.
This will be a special moment for reflection as well as for looking forward. Don’t miss it! Stay tuned to wisdom.umbc.edu for updates, registration information, and other Wisdom Institute events. We hope to see you there!
