Campus Notes

Women's Health Research announces election of four new members

Four new members have been elected to the council of Women's Health Research at Yale (WHRY).

The new members are Mary Ellen Cody, a board member of the Long Wharf Theatre; Denise Davis, a senior vice president in the Business Development Group of U.S. Trust's Stamford office; Duby McDowell, a principal with the New York-based consulting firm Global Strategy Group LLC; and Liza Petra, executive director of the Women & Family Life Center, a non-profit organization in Guilford serving women and families in transition.

The council members lend their personal and professional guidance to the program's director and WHRY staff.

Women's Health Research at Yale is an interdisciplinary research program that was established in 1998 as a self-supporting program to respond to the need for scientific information on women's health and on sex-specific factors determining health and disease.


Faculty will sign copies of their new books at local bookstore

Labyrinth Books, 290 York St, will host a reception and book-signing event for two faculty members at 4:30 p.m. on Thursday, Feb. 9.
