Cancer researcher and former chair of the Biology Department, Dr. Jason Bush, has now served a full semester as associate dean of the College of Science and Mathematics and earned some “street cred” on the job.

Bush says the best part of his new position is working with students from all disciplines, hearing their views and interacting with them.

“I’m excited to be in the dean’s office because I get the opportunity to work directly with the dean and implement the vision he has for the college,” Bush said. “I believe the CSM is positioned to lead the university and foster new economic development in the region.”

Bush and CSM dean Dr. Christopher Meyer have formed a good-cop-good-cop tag team, seeking ways to promote student, staff and faculty activities to make the college a haven for interdisciplinary excellence that supports all aspects of STEM education.
