Message from the Dean

Dear Friends, Graduations are about past achievements and future possibilities. During Commencement this May, as I greeted and handed each graduate their diploma, I was struck by the literally thousands of Boston University School of Medicine (BUSM) faculty and staff whose combined effort made that moment possible for each member of the class. Certainly their families provided the home and support that made the study and achievement required for acceptance into such a competitive profession possible. However, the richness of the Boston University School of Medicine (BUSM) community, past and present, invested in these physicians and scientists is also impressive. We have almost 2,300 medical school faculty and thousands of additional staff who contribute to the education and support of our students, facilitating their development. Each of the faculty and staff in our departments and dean’s offices, as well as the men and women who provide snow removal, maintain the green, and serve quesadillas on Wednesdays, contributes to the education of our students. Our friends and donors also play an important role in each student’s development. Every person listed in this report has contributed to our graduates’ achievements at BUSM, as well as the accomplishments of our current and future students. Our students’ stories and the response of the BUSM family are inspirational. We have had students with medical issues not covered by their insurance. In one instance, I informed several faculty and donors of the issue, and within a few weeks we had not only paid for the care needed but now have a medical student emergency fund. We have discovered that some students have inadequate funds for meals; and other students have part-time jobs, not just to support themselves, but to send needed money home. BUSM is planning many ways to keep a medical or graduate health sciences education within the reach of students selected for their potential as physicians and scientists, independent of means. As many students spend hours commuting because they can no longer afford to live in the South End, we are planning expanded student housing adjacent to our campus. Access to safe, affordable housing nearby will significantly curtail travel time and expenses for many students. The medical school also needs to renovate classrooms and study areas, including the Alumni Medical Library. While both residential space and renovated facilities are expensive, these investments attract and better serve our students. BUSM continues to be a community-based teaching facility with a strong vision for the future. We continue to attract top faculty, clinicians, and researchers from around the world. With a global health perspective on learning, our students are continually exposed to new ideas, new treatments, and new ways of thinking that will ultimately shape the way they will practice medicine. While the financial burden of a medical degree can be daunting to many prospective students, BUSM is working to help students achieve their dreams with as little educational debt as possible. But the simple fact remains that a medical education is expensive. We are developing programs that will help to significantly cut down on the amount of debt faced by our graduates, allowing them to concentrate solely on their medical studies. Medicine is constantly changing, and BUSM must adapt to meet the demands of our profession. We are grateful for your generosity to BUSM and hope that you will continue to support student housing, scholarships, faculty recruiting, and classroom facilities. Please join me in thanking those listed on these pages for their leadership and support of this great institution. Sincerely,

Karen Antman, MD Provost, Medical Campus Dean, School of Medicine

A Good Life, A Generous Man
When you meet Stanley Konefal, MD ’47, you can immediately detect the contentment that envelopes his life. He has a serene manner and a warm nature. He will tell you that his life has been and is a good one. He will also tell you that he is fortunate to have had a wonderful career as a surgeon and has been graced with a loving family.
Raised in East Berlin, Connecticut, he was educated in a four-room schoolhouse prior to attending high school. He thought about engineering as a profession, but his first love was surgery, so he majored in pre-med at Tufts University, where he met his late wife, Catherine. He was accepted to and matriculated at BUSM in 1942. “BUSM was a good choice for me,” says Konefal. “I appreciate the education I received and am grateful because the training made it possible to live a wonderful life—to have a good practice and a successful career.” Konefal served in the U.S. Army during World War II while in school. He did his internship and residency at Cambridge City Hospital and in 1951 opened his practice in Medford, Massachusetts, where he served that community for 35 years. “My practice was made up of average people, and I had many long and good relationships with my patients,” recalls Konefal. He was on the staff of Lawrence Memorial Hospital (now part of the Hallmark Healthcare System) and the New England Memorial Hospital. “I have never been anything but grateful to Boston University School of Medicine,” says Konefal. His gratitude has been evident in his significant generosity to the School of Medicine. A consistent contributor for 40 years, he established the Stanley and Catherine Konefal Student Revolving Loan Fund in 1991, and on the occasion of his 50th Reunion he provided the lead gift for the class donation to the Alumni Medical Library. He has also provided for the School in his estate plans with a charitable remainder trust. “Stan Konefal serves as a role model for so many of us. A skilled and caring surgeon, he has never forgotten the opportunity afforded him by BUSM,” notes Barry Manuel, MD ’58, associate dean and executive director of the BUSM Alumni Association. “He has stayed connected to our School and frequently attends School functions. He quietly and very generously supports BUSM and is one of the finest examples of the kind of outstanding alumni we are fortunate to have.” He is dedicated to his family, and his two sons are both physicians. Stanley Jr. is a pediatric surgeon, and Joseph (BUSM ’77) is a urologist. His daughter, Catherine, owns and manages an insurance company. He credits his late wife with being responsible for their children’s individual goodness. The grandfather of eight, he recently remarried and lives most of the year on Singer Island, Florida. “Dr. Konefal has our deep gratitude for his very long-standing and generous support for Boston University School of Medicine,” says Karen Antman, MD, dean and provost of the Medical Campus. “He not only gives generously every year, he has also made a wonderful commitment to provide for the School in his estate plans.”

A consistent contributor for 40 years, he established the Stanley and Catherine Konefal Student Revolving Loan Fund in 1991.

Stethoscopes for Students
Alumni Listen and Provide the Rx
When the members of the Class of 2011 were welcomed to the BUSM community this fall, they each received a white coat that symbolizes their acceptance to the profession. They also received a stethoscope. This basic and required tool of the profession was provided to the new students gratis through the generosity of BUSM alumni who donated the cost of the instruments.
“Alumni who gave to this program made an important contribution to easing the burden on our medical students,” says Barry Manuel, MD ’58, BUSM Alumni Association Executive Director. “Providing these stethoscopes is another example of the outstanding generosity of our graduates.” For a gift of $150, donors “sponsored” a stethoscope, and at the White Coat Ceremony a card with the donor’s name, class year, and specialty was inserted in the pocket of the coat. Leslie Serchuck, MD ’90, who sponsored five stethoscopes, says, “I still have my first stethoscope and my first pair of scrubs. They are the tangible proof of an important rite of passage, and I hope the recipients never put a stethoscope to a patient without maintaining a sense of awe.” If you would like to join your fellow graduates in this new alumni tradition and help a medical student or students, you may send your $150 contribution for each instrument you wish to donate to the BUSM Alumni Association, 715 Albany Street, L-120, Boston, MA 02118, or you may also make your contribution online at www.bumc.bu.edu/medalumni and click on Make an Online Contribution. Please note that it is for the Stethoscope Program.

It’s All in the Family
When David Rothbaum, MD ’82, was accepted to BUSM, the School selected not only an excellent student and a dedicated future alumnus, it also gained a family committed to the institution.
David Rothbaum, MD ’82

Paul and Jean Rothbaum, David’s father and mother, quickly became involved in the School, joining the Parents Committee and eventually becoming co-chairpersons, hosting BUSM events in New York, and making generous contributions. “We were very happy that David was getting his medical degree from Boston University,” said Paul Rothbaum, who remains just as dedicated and committed to the School to this day. The couple established a prize fund in obstetrics and gynecology in honor of their son and supported the John and Hannah Sandson Student Revolving Loan Fund out of their deep respect for John Sandson, MD, dean of BUSM when David attended. According to Mr. Rothbaum, it was his late wife who initiated their involvement in the Hubert Humphrey

B O S TO N U N I V E R S I T Y S C HO O L O F M E D IC I N E

Cancer Research Center at BUSM. He is currently on the National Advisory Committee of the Humphrey Center and is also a member of the School’s Board of Visitors. There is a classroom in BUSM’s McNary Learning Center named in their honor to recognize their considerable generosity toward building the center. Among the many generous contributions to BUSM, the one that stands out is Paul’s loving tribute to his wife, the Jean Rothbaum Memorial Scholarship Fund. More recently, Paul Rothbaum has contributed to the Aram Chobanian Professorship Fund. All three of Mr. Rothbaum’s sons are physicians. He attributes his childrens’ career choice to a strike at the Long Island Jewish Hospital when the three of them heeded the call for volunteers to keep the hospital operating. “They got a taste of hospital work, and it appealed to them,” he says. Like his parents, David Rothbaum often offered his time and effort to help the School. As a medical student he volunteered for the Alumni Association annual fund phonathons to raise money. When he graduated, he immediately joined the Dean’s Club, the giving society initiated to encourage and recognize leadership giving to the School of Medicine. In the 25 years since his graduation, he has continued his annual Dean’s Club contribution and now joins his parents as a member of the Chester S. Keefer, MD Society. The Keefer Society recognizes cumulative giving of more than $50,000 to BUSM. In 1986, Rothbaum opened his ob/gyn practice in Great Neck, New York, which now includes his brother. He is a clinical faculty member at Weill-Cornell Medical School and New York University School of Medicine, and is a fellow of the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists.

He has served as his class agent, has continued as a phonathon volunteer, and was president of the Alumni Association and organizer of the Class of 1982 25th Reunion this past year. In addition to supporting the School’s annual fund, David has contributed to the Sandson Student Revolving Loan Fund and the McNary Learning Center, and most recently has joined the Adopt-A-Student program, pledging to support a medical student over the course of his or her four years at BUSM. He and his wife, Melanie, have five children. Much to David’s delight, their oldest son, Robert, is enrolled in the BUSM Seven-Year Program which combines the BA and MD degrees. “It is clear that the outstanding philanthropy of Paul Rothbaum and his late wife, Jean, set the example for their son, David, who is truly following in his parents’ generous footsteps,” said Dean Karen Antman, MD. “The Rothbaums’ gifts to the School have helped countless students realize their dream of practicing medicine, and we look forward to their continued involvement as we go forward educating and training the nation’s next physicians.”

Professorship to honor two innovators will benefit future generations
The Department of Otolaryngology—Head and Neck Surgery at Boston University School of Medicine has an illustrious and historic past. In 1951, M. Stuart Strong, MD, chairman of BUSM’s Department of Otolaryngology, accepted for training the first resident to graduate from the program, Charles Vaughan. For more than thirty years, Drs. Strong and Vaughan worked closely together to build a department that eventually became world renowned.
They were the first physicians to employ the use of the laser in otolaryngology surgery, thus ushering in the era of laser surgery and thrusting Boston University to the forefront of technical innovation. They were exciting and passionate educators who enticed more than one hundred BUSM students to choose careers in otolaryngology, and many of those former BUSM students have gone on to become leaders in otolaryngology throughout the world. Gerald B. Healy, MD ’67, president-elect of the American College of Surgeons, is one of the many BUSM students who chose to become an otolaryngologist and who completed his residency training in otolaryngology under the tutelage of Drs. Strong and Vaughan. “Dr. Strong’s and Dr. Vaughan’s fascination with the work they were doing and their propensity to be innovators and educators created within the department a rare sense of enthusiasm and momentum,” says Kenneth Grundfast, MD, FACS, FAAP, professor and chairman of the Department of Otolaryngology—Head and Neck Surgery at Boston University School of Medicine. “Their names are synonymous with excellence and innovation in our field.” And Grundfast should know. As a resident at Boston City Hospital (now Boston Medical Center), Grundfast trained under both Strong and Vaughan. Since becoming chair of the department, Grundfast has worked on creating the M. Stuart Strong and Charles W. Vaughan Professorship in Otolaryngology. “I am thankful for what my mentors did for me and I want to contribute in a way that can strengthen the School of Medicine so that others can derive the benefits that I received from those who were part of the BUSM faculty,” says Grundfast. To date, more than $2.3 million, including a significant estate commitment, has been raised toward the $2.5 million required to establish the professorship. “I want to see the names of these two great otolaryngologists honored in perpetuity, never to

be forgotten by future generations of students and residents,” continues Grundfast, whose other philanthropic interests include Boston Medical Center, the State University of New York—Syracuse Medical School from which he graduated, and various Jewish organizations. “Having a strong faculty is what attracts the best and brightest students and residents to the School of Medicine and BMC,” states Grundfast. “Contributing now is an investment in these two institutions that are tightly linked and that share lofty goals for future generations of medical practitioners.” “Both Dr. Strong and Dr. Vaughan helped to revolutionize the way people teach and practice otolaryngology,” says BUSM Dean Karen Antman. “A professorship in their names will ensure that these two medical pioneers are remembered for their many contributions to science.” For more information on the M. Stuart Strong and Charles W. Vaughan Professorship in Otolaryngology or to make a gift, please contact School of Medicine Associate Vice President and Director of Development Lynn Hendricks at 617-638-4570.

Rachel Boone Keith, MD ’49
Beloved physician, community leader, and civil rights activist honored with a scholarship in her name
Rachel Boone Keith, MD ’49, the daughter of missionaries, dedicated her life to her family, her patients, and her community. At a time when women in medicine were uncommon, let alone African-American women, she was widely known for her advocacy for her patients, as well as the personalized attention and care she gave them and her service as a mentor to others in the medical community.
Paying tribute to her long medical career and in appreciation for the opportunity provided to her by BUSM, Dr. Keith’s family initiated a prize fund in her honor at BUSM. On the occasion of her death in January 2007, through the generosity of her husband, daughters, and friends, the fund was expanded to provide scholarship support for fourth-year students (with a preference for African-American women) who excel in their clinical performance. An internist in private practice in Detroit, Michigan, she was committed to civil rights. “She was one of the first ladies of civil rights and one of the most respected doctors in the state,” said Melvin Hollowell, general counsel of the Detroit branch of the NAACP. “She dedicated her life not only to AfricanAmericans through civil rights, but also as a pioneer for women in medicine.” In 1998, she was honored by BUSM with a special award as a woman of outstanding achievement, and she received an honorary degree from BU as part of the School’s sesquicentennial celebration.

“As one of the first African-American female physicians in the city, she overcame professional obstacles without self-importance and succeeded in raising a family who adored her abundant goodness, strength, and grace,” said her husband, Federal Court Judge Damon Keith. “Her tendency to promote tolerance was designed to foster the higher purpose of peace and unity.” “At BUSM we are proud of our long history of educating women and minorities,” said Dean Karen Antman, MD. “And with the support of people like the Keith family and friends, we will continue this outstanding tradition.” Donations to the Rachel Boone Keith Fund may be sent to: BUSM Office of Development, 715 Albany Street, L-319, Boston, MA 02118.

“She dedicated her life not only to African-Americans through civil rights, but also as a pioneer for women in medicine.”

Donors to the Rachel Boone Keith Fund express their admiration for this extraordinary woman: “We at Butzel Long are proud to be able to provide support to deserving medical students who would follow the example set by Rachel Boone Keith when she attended the Boston University School of Medicine. “In her fifty years of medical practice, Dr. Keith cared for my grandmother, Alberta Green, my mother, Lethia Green Dudley, me, and my five brothers and sisters. Needless to say, our families have grown close over the years and we were all saddened to hear of her passing. She was a truly wonderful person and an outstanding physician, and she will be missed.”

“The attorney members of the WBA were deeply saddened by the passing of Dr. Keith. However, we hope and pray that the monies for this permanently endowed fund will benefit future generations of African-American female students, and that they will continue Dr. Keith’s commitment of serving the needs of their patients, regardless of race, gender, or ability to pay.”

Project to Help Homeless and Medically Underserved Receives Student Support
When the BUSM Student Committee on Medical School Affairs (SCOMSA) learned that the Outreach Van Project (OVP) was losing one of its funding sources, the committee, which sponsors an annual winter semi-formal for students, decided to use the proceeds from the sale of tickets to the event to help the OVP.
The OVP is a completely student-run organization whose mission is to fulfill the unmet needs of the medically underserved populations in the greater Boston area. These include the homeless, migrant workers, immigrants, and others with little or no access to health care. The project also offers students the opportunity to gain experience and develop skills in community outreach. The donation from the event’s ticket sales totaled $5,000. “The Outreach Van Project is one of the most admirable organizations at our School and, as we are all painfully aware, the problem of homelessness is not going away any time soon,” says David Annas ’07, a former clothing chair for OVP and a member of the Senior Committee. “We hope that this donation will help them in their mission to provide food, clothing, toiletries, and medical services to the homeless and indigent population of Boston.” “We are tremendously grateful to the BUSM students who have stepped up to cover our funding gap, in addition to all of the hours they have volunteered with us,” says Sahar Aminipour, Outreach Van Project Coordinator.

“We hope that this donation will help them in their mission to provide food, clothing, toiletries, and medical services to the homeless and indigent population of Boston.”

Elementary and Middle School Students Raise Funds for BUSM’s Alzheimer’s Disease Center
With an estimated 5.1 million Americans suffering from Alzheimer’s disease, this devastating neurological illness touches many families. Students in schools in East Bridgewater, Massachusetts, decided to do something to help. They have been fundraising for the past two years to support the research being done at the Alzheimer’s Disease Center at BUSM.
In addition to the $1,700 raised last year, members of the Laslie Family, representing the schools, recently presented a check for $3,341 from the schools’ “Crazy Hat” fundraiser to the Alzheimer’s Disease Advisory Board. The three Laslie girls’ grandfather, who suffered from Alzheimer’s, loved to wear hats, so the granddaughters inaugurated Crazy Hat Day at their schools, where everyone including faculty and staff joined in. “It’s wonderful to see young people take action to have a direct impact on what we do to fight this disease,” said Robert Stern, PhD, associate professor of neurology and co-director of the Alzheimer’s Disease Clinical and Research Program at BUSM.
Cassie, Alexa, and Kandyse Laslie present a check to Robert C. Green, MD, co-director of the Alzheimer’s Disease Clinical and Research Program and professor of neurology, genetics and epidemiology; Carlos Kase, MD, professor and chairman of the Department of Neurology; Carmela Abraham, PhD, professor of biochemistry and medicine; Karen Antman, MD, dean and provost; Michael Critelli, chairman of the Alzheimer’s Advisory Board and executive chairman of Pitney Bowes; and Robert A. Stern, PhD, co-director of the Alzheimer’s Disease Clinical and Research Program and associate professor of neurology.

Stern, wearing his own crazy hat, spoke to the 1,000 students about the disease during the May 4, 2007, event at the Gordon W. Mitchell Middle School in East Bridgewater. He recalls, “One of the striking things about my visit to the school was when I asked the students to raise their hands if they had someone close to them with Alzheimer’s disease. One half of the students put their hands up.”

The goal of the Alzheimer’s Disease Center at BUSM is to help reduce the human and economic costs associated with Alzheimer’s disease through the advancement of knowledge and increasing awareness of the illness. The Alzheimer’s Disease Advisory Board, initiated in 2003, helps raise funds for Alzheimer’s disease research at BUSM through personal philanthropy, outreach, and volunteer efforts.

Planned Gifts help BUSM succeed today and tomorrow
For M. Douglass Poirier, MD ’76, making a planned gift was an easy decision. “I wanted to give something back to an institution that I care about, which for me is Boston University School of Medicine,” says Poirier.
Poirier chose to establish a charitable gift annuity at BUSM that provides him with a fixed annuity payment based on his age at the time of the gift. A charitable gift annuity is also taken as a tax deduction in the year of the gift and provides tax-free income on a portion of the annuity payment. This is not the first time that Poirier has decided to pitch in and help his Alma Mater. A graduate of the Six-Year Program, Poirier is a past president of the BUSM Alumni Association, as well as a regular phonathon volunteer. He also served as the 25th Reunion organizer and spearheaded the establishment of the Class of 1976 Scholarship Fund. In addition, Poirier has supported the Student Village at Boston University and the athletics program. “Charitable gift annuities are a good investment with a fair return. The great thing about them is that you avoid the anxieties of the stock market and have a guaranteed income for life,” states Poirier.

“Planned gifts provide income and tax benefits to donors while increasing the endowment of the School of Medicine,” says Dean Karen Antman, MD. “These gifts allow the School of Medicine to better prepare and plan for future growth and expansion on our campus and in our profession.”

For more information on establishing a charitable gift annuity or other planned gift, please contact School of Medicine Associate Vice President and Director of Development Lynn Hendricks at 617-638-4570 or Alumni Association Executive Director Barry Manuel, MD ’58, at 617-638-5154.

MERWYN BAGAN, MD ’62 Chairman of the Board of Visitors

ADRIENNE M. PENTA

“Everyone at BUSM and on the Board of Visitors is passionate about educating physicians and supporting medical research, and I am proud to be a part of that important tradition.”
JOHN I. POLK, MD ’74

“As a member of the Board of Visitors, I have enjoyed the opportunity to meet both faculty and students, and I was pleased that my contacts at Cognia Molecular resulted in a contribution to the Genetics and Genomics Department. Establishing and developing these contacts for the School are important and one of the reasons that I joined the board. Through my meetings with students, I have come to understand some of the unique challenges they face. As a result, my wife and I decided to establish the “Special Medical Needs Fund” to provide financial help for certain medical needs not covered by disability services or student medical insurance. My involvement and ability to help support the School of Medicine have been very gratifying.”
SHERRY M. LEVENTHAL

“I will be forever grateful to the faculty, staff, and patients who all contributed to my wonderful experience as a student at the School of Medicine. My donations to the School enable today’s students to have a similar experience, and I hope they too will be grateful and continue this spirit of philanthropy.”

“One of our daughters is in her third year at BUSM, and the other graduated in May. As parents, my husband, Alan, and I have witnessed firsthand the excellence in medical education provided by BUSM as our daughters transform from eager college students to compassionate, skillful physicians. We are proud to support this outstanding institution.”

ELIZABETH STENGEL Director, BUSM Office of Government Relations

“Over the many years that I’ve worked for BUSM, I have given annually—not because anyone made me feel it was expected, but rather because I felt a strong commitment to the special mission of the School in training physicians to care for poor, urban populations and providing health care access to all. I’ve felt especially fortunate to work closely with Deans John Sandson and Aram Chobanian on issues to which I personally relate: the need to reduce medical student debts, the importance of federal funding to continue the excellence of BUSM’s research enterprise, and the understanding that the political process is necessary to achieving the School’s goals.”

Class of 1952 Reaches Goal of Establishing a Class Scholarship
Members of the Class of 1952, celebrating their 55th Reunion in May, were extremely happy and proud to announce that they had reached the goal they set at their 50th Reunion to endow a class scholarship. Dean Antman and Alumni Association Executive Director Barry Manuel, MD ’58, made a point of stopping by their reunion dinner to congratulate them on their efforts. They thanked Alvin Eden, MD ’52, for his efforts in keeping up the momentum by writing the annual appeal letters and generally encouraging classmates to make the scholarship possible.

“I consistently contribute to BUSM because I am forever grateful for the educational experience that I received. It is clear to me every day that the medical school prepared me well for the ever-changing landscape of medicine. As a surgical residency program director, I review more than a thousand applications and interview dozens of applicants. The graduates from BUSM are more prepared than graduates from any other medical school— due to the diverse and carefully planned experiences provided to BUSM students. I owe my professional success to Boston University.”

“Boston University was a strong foundation to base a lifetime of learning upon. Both my wife and I, having been in the real world, truly appreciate our education. Providing support for such a foundation for future generations of BU graduates is an essential factor in preserving the legacy of BU and its alumni.”

“We feel that our BU medical education has been a major contributor to our accomplishments thus far in life. Further, we have had the opportunity to work with medical students from over a dozen medical schools, and we continue to note that BU students have superior clinical skills. For these reasons, we feel that it is our privilege, not only to give back to the medical school that started our careers, but to provide our help to an institution that will continue to educate outstanding physicians.”
