In a welcome break from all the talk about cuts and layoffs at colleges and universities, comes the news that Saint Louis University’s medical school is expanding its newly created department of neurology and psychiatry by 13 faculty members, the St. Louis Business Journal reports:
The department, which currently has about 45 faculty members, recently appointed seven new professors. An additional professor, with a focus on forensic psychiatry, will join the department in January. SLU plans to fill another three neurology faculty spots and two psychiatry faculty positions within the next year.
