It was bittersweet to preside over my 17th and last FBI Retreat as FBI Director, celebrating the spectacular growth and quality of Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai's neuroscience community since our 1st retreat in 2009. And so pleased to hand the reins to Paul Kenny, PhD as Interim Director.
