Karen Plaut - Leadership news

January 10, 2025

 

Dear Colleagues,
 
I am writing to let you know that I have decided to retire on June 30. I have really enjoyed working as your Executive Vice President for Research over these last two years, during which we’ve worked together to obtain record research funding, improved our regulatory processes, and have rewarded and communicated the great science that you have all been a part of. These last few years in research have been a great culmination of my career and it has been wonderful to meet and work with so many of you. 
 
The President will send out an announcement today, but I wanted to get a chance for you to hear this news directly from me before he announces my retirement and the start of the search.
 
Thank you all so much. I look forward to continuing to work with you over the next six months as we still have a lot to accomplish!
 
Karen Plaut
