The Dean’s Innovation Fund provides the Dean of the Jacobs School of Medicine and Biomedical Sciences unrestricted funds to respond rapidly and flexibly to ideas as they arise.

From our founding as a medical school in 1846, to paving the way for future physicians, the Jacobs School of Medicine and Biomedical Sciences builds upon its proud legacy of teaching, patient care and scientific discovery.

The fund was established in 2000 by Ronald Garvey, M.D. '53, in support of the school—one of the oldest medical schools in the United States.

At the Jacobs School of Medicine and Biomedical Sciences, we strive to attract the most promising individuals and support their development; enhance our intellectual and technological environment to foster exceptionally creative science and education; develop and maintain excellent clinical programs to provide outstanding care; cultivate excellence, collegiality, and diversity; observe the highest standards of ethics, integrity, professionalism, and humanism; and apply advances in science, medicine, and education to the betterment of humanity.
