Re: Interim Head of Division of Infectious Disease

We are pleased to announce that Dr Irving Salit has agreed to serve as Interim Head of the combined Division of Infectious Disease at Mount Sinai and UHN. Dr. Salit is Professor of Medicine at the University of Toronto and the Director of the Immunodeficiency (HIV) Clinic at the Toronto General Hospital. His research interests also include the Human Papillomavirus (HPV) and screening tests for HPV-associated Anal Cancer. Dr. Salit has frequently travelled to Russia as part of a CIDA-funded project (The Canada AIDS Russia Project), a multidisciplinary project based in St. Petersburg and Moscow. Current international health activities are taking place in Ukraine and in Shanghai, China.

We would like to thank Dr Conrad Liles for his outstanding work as Hospital Division Head and University Division Director of Infectious Disease for the past 5 years. Dr Liles recently left Toronto to return to Seattle, but will continue some ongoing research here. A Search Committee is actively looking for a new Division Head.
