Sherine Gabriel

I became dean of Rutgers Robert Wood Johnson Medical School in July, 2015. Prior to this role, I served as the dean of Mayo Medical School at the Mayo Clinic, where I was also professor of medicine and professor of epidemiology at Mayo Medical School since 2000 and the William J. and Charles H. Mayo endowed professor since 2005. While at the Mayo Clinic, I worked in a variety of roles for nearly 30 years, and held many key leadership positions including:chair of Mayo Clinic’s Department of Health Sciences Research, medical director of its international office, and medical director of its Office for Strategic Alliances and Business Development; and as a member of the Mayo Clinic Executive Board. I also maintained an established NIH-funded research program in the epidemiology of the rheumatic diseases.

As a Canadian, I received my undergraduate education at the University of Regina in Saskatchewan, Canada, and the College of Pharmacy at the University of Saskatchewan Medical School, before earning my medical degree with distinction at the University of Saskatchewan.

Ever since childhood, I've been interested in and, to a small extent, involved in the dramatic arts. So this project allows me to bring my love of Medicine together with my love of theater and drama.
