A once-in-a-lifetime opportunity The last new medical school at a Tier 1 research university opened nearly half a century ago. Much has changed since then — in medicine, technology and society. Even the most modern medical schools are shackled by aging infrastructures, outdated practices and institutional baggage. Starting from scratch, Dell Medical School is free of those constraints — free to reimagine the role of academic medicine in transforming health and health care. Working with a vast array of partners, Dell Medical School is using this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to rethink everything.
“I’m not interested in creating just another medical school.” Clay Johnston, MD, PhD Dean, Frank and Charmaine Denius Distinguished Dean’s Chair Vice President for Medical Affairs
