Robert I. Grossman is an American physician-researcher. He is chief executive officer of NYU Langone Health (formerly NYU Medical Center) and dean of NYU Grossman School of Medicine (formerly NYU School of Medicine).[1]

Early life and education

In 1969, Grossman earned a bachelor of science degree in biology from Tulane University where he was a Tulane Scholar.[2][3] He was elected to Phi Beta Kappa.[2][3] In 1973, he earned a medical degree from the University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine and was elected Alpha Omega Alpha.[2][1]

Grossman completed an internship at Beth Israel Hospital in Boston, Massachusetts, two years of a neurosurgery residency at the Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, a radiology residency at the Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania, and a neuroradiology fellowship at Massachusetts General Hospital.[4][5] He is board certified in diagnostic radiology.[4]

Career

Academic appointments

Grossman joined the faculty of the University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine as an assistant instructor in the Department of Neurosurgery.[6] He later served as chief of neuroradiology, associate chairman of the Department of Radiology, and professor of radiology, neurosurgery, and neurology.[7][1]

In 2001, he was appointed the Louis Marx Professor of Radiology, Chairman of the Department of Radiology,[7] and professor of neurology, neurosurgery, and neuroscience and physiology at NYU School of Medicine.[8]

In 2007, he was named dean of NYU School of Medicine and chief executive officer of NYU Medical Center, later renamed NYU Langone Health.[9][1]

Research

Grossman has been awarded over 25 grants from the National Institutes of Health (NIH).[7] In 1999, he was one of ten scientists in the U.S. to receive the Javits Neuroscience Investigator Award from the NIH.[7][2][10] The nearly $4 million grant supported his ongoing research on multiple sclerosis.[10] Grossman was a member of the Diagnostic Radiology Study Section at the NIH and served as its chairman.[7] He was also a member of the NIH’s National Advisory Council for Biomedical Imaging and Bioengineering.[11]

Milestones

On October 29, 2012, he oversaw the safe evacuation of 322 patients during Hurricane Sandy, which flooded NYU Langone Health’s midtown Manhattan campus with more than 15 million gallons of water from the East River, inflicting more than $1 billion of damage to the institution’s infrastructure and forcing a temporary shutdown.[12][13][14] Grossman coordinated restoration efforts and NYU Langone Health was able to reopen major clinical units on December 27, 2012.[14]

In 2013, he established an accelerated three-year MD pathway for select medical students to ease the financial burden of medical school and launch medical careers one year earlier than traditional students.[15][16] The initiative made NYU School of Medicine the first nationally ranked medical school in the U.S. to enable medical students to graduate in three years, providing a directed pathway into any one of NYU Langone’s twenty residency programs and accelerated entry into a variety of medical specialties.[15][16]

In 2018, he implemented full-tuition scholarships for all current and future students in NYU School of Medicine’s MD degree program,[17][1][18] making the school the first top-10 ranked medical school in the nation to provide full-tuition scholarships to all of its students.[1]

Awards and honors

In 2013, he was named a “Living Landmark” by the New York Landmarks Conservancy for his leadership during Hurricane Sandy, when he oversaw the safe evacuation of 322 patients from NYU Langone’s midtown Manhattan campus.[2][19]

In 2018, he was named to Time magazine’s inaugural “Health Care 50” list of the 50 most influential healthcare leaders who changed the state of healthcare in America.[1][18]

In 2019, he was awarded the Lifetime Achievement of the Emeritus Class Award by Tulane University.[20]

In 2021, he was an American Society of Neuroradiology Gold Medal Award recipient.[21]

In 2022, he was elected to the American Academy of Arts and Sciences.[22]
