Fuhlbrigge to join School of Medicine

Anne Fuhlbrigge will become the University of Colorado School of Medicine’s next Senior Associate Dean for Clinical Affairs and Chief Medical Officer for University Physicians Inc. (UPI), beginning June 2016.

Fuhlbrigge currently is clinical chief of pulmonary and critical care medicine and vice chair of ambulatory specialty services at Brigham and Women’s Hospital in Boston and assistant professor of medicine at Harvard Medical School. She brings a distinguished record of service that includes steering committees at the Brigham, as co-investigator on several large multi-institutional projects, and on national and international programs and committees evaluating treatment strategies and implications for health policy management.

Additionally, her husband, Robert Fuhlbrigge, also will join the School of Medicine faculty. He is an associate professor of pediatrics and dermatology at Harvard Medical School and he will be heading the pediatric rheumatology practice at Children’s Hospital Colorado and will be a member of the Department of Pediatrics.

Doug Jones will step down as senior associate dean for Clinical Affairs, a post he has held since 2010. Jones has been a crucial leader in building relationships between the School, hospital partners and exceptional faculty.
