The University of Illinois board of trustees Thursday approved a new medical school for the Urbana-Champaign campus, a unique engineering-focused program that could enroll students as soon as fall 2017.
The idea of an engineering-based medical school has been championed for a year by campus Chancellor Phyllis Wise, who has called it a "game changer" and one that is necessary for the university to compete in fields such as biomedicine. The new school would be separate from the university's existing College of Medicine, which is overseen by the University of Illinois at Chicago campus.
The board's approval means the campus can begin steps to open the school, including entering into a contract with partner Carle Health System. With up to 50 students per class, the school will draw on the university's strengths in engineering and technology to graduate physician-scientists and engineers who may work in clinical practice but also would have the skills and inclination to develop new medical equipment and innovations.
"We have the capacity to be able to truly redesign medicine," Wise said in an interview with the Chicago Tribune this week. "We have such a strong College of Engineering that can inform the next generation of doctors and therefore inform the next generation of health care."
As proposed, the new school would not rely on state funding. It would be supported in part through a partnership with Carle. The health system has pledged $100 million over the first 10 years. Other revenue would come from tuition, donors, grants and contracts, patient fees and the commercialization of medical technology. Wise said the goal is to secure $135 million from donors in the first 10 years.
Wise has said that without a medical school, the state's flagship public campus is at risk of falling behind its peers, as it can't compete for certain grants or attract and retain researchers and scientists whose work relies on a medical school.
Trustees said little about the medical school before approving it at their meeting Thursday, but they voiced their support at a committee meeting a day earlier. "We are taking some risks, but I think they are mitigated risks," said trustee Ricardo Estrada. U. of I. President Robert Easter said he was initially "skeptical" of the financial feasibility of the plan but has come around.
Wise has lobbied trustees for a year, and she has been met with opposition from officials at the university's sister campus in Chicago. UIC officials had said that a second medical school is unnecessary but this week pledged to collaborate on medical education.
The U. of I. system's College of Medicine is the largest public medical school in the country, with about 1,350 students at four regional sites throughout the state. Some of the students are assigned to the Urbana-Champaign campus, including those getting a joint M.D./Ph.D. in the Medical Scholars Program, and that relationship will continue, Wise said. The board has asked for more details about the future of those students.
The board also asked for a progress update at its May meeting, including on the submission of a comprehensive business plan. The campus now plans to negotiate an agreement with Carle.

CLIFTON The Clifton Board of Education is seeking to form a "medical arts academy" curriculum for students of Clifton High School and eventually form a partnership with an incoming medical school.
The Board voted to begin discussions with Hackensack University Medical Center (HUMC) and Seton Hall University, which in January signed a memorandum of understanding to establish a private medical school on a portion of the Nutley and Clifton land formerly occupied by Hoffmann-La Roche.
The school is slated to be run out of buildings 123 and 123A leased from Roche, which houses about $500,000 million of equipment in 500,000 square feet. If the plan remains on schedule, the new medical school expects to instruct its first students in 2017.
"I think it's an excellent opportunity to develop a relationship and develop a curriculum for a medical arts academy," said School Board commissioner, James Daley, who first proposed the partnership for the high school last month.
Currently Clifton High School is affiliated with two area colleges: Montclair State University (MSU) and Passaic County Community College (PCCC).
Both programs provide students dual enrollment, meaning they earn college and high school course credits for taking the college-level courses. Eligible seniors must meet GPA requirements and be in good disciplinary standing.
Most offered courses are general education without prerequisites, but certain programs allow students to begin business tracks, criminal justice courses, and art electives.
"It offers students a great opportunity to experience college and obtain college credit that's transferable to any state college or university," said Peter Cumba, who handles senior year options at the high school.
Students who dual enroll pay a reduced tuition for the courses and have abbreviated high school schedules. MSU-enrolled students take courses on the college campus; PCCC-enrolled students take courses at the high school at the end of the school day.
Cumba said students in the program generally take one course in the fall and two in the spring. The school also provides students with an option for "very intense" EMT training program, contingent on GPA requirements, rigorous field work, and a final exam.

District looks to partner Clifton High School with incoming medical school
UMMS scientists develop multicolored CRISPR/Cas9 labeling system to precisely measure the distance between chromosomes and genetic elements
WORCESTER, MA - A new "app" for finding and mapping chromosomal loci using multicolored versions of CRISPR/Cas9, one of the hottest tools in biomedical research today, has been developed by scientists at the University of Massachusetts Medical School. This labeling system, details of which were published in PNAS and first presented at the American Society for Cell Biology/International Federation for Cell Biology annual meeting in Philadelphia in December, could be a key to understanding the spatial and temporal regulation of gene expression by allowing researchers to measure the precise linear distance between two known points on different chromosomes or two locations on the same chromosome in live human cells.
The nucleus of every cell in our bodies (with the exception of gametes and red blood cells) must pack into it 23 pairs of chromosomes, tight bundles of extremely long strands of DNA wound around protein knobs. For a gene to be transcribed and expressed, it must be accessible on the chromosome. Scientists have long suspected that the position of a chromosome within the nucleus affects gene accessibility and plays a critical role in everything from embryonic development to cancer.
Knowing the location and the intra-nuclear conformation of chromosomes is critical to understanding how genes actually work because the human cell nucleus is a very crowded place, according to study authors Thoru Pederson, PhD, professor of biochemistry and molecular pharmacology, and research specialist Hanhui Ma, PhD, at UMass Medical School.
By deploying pairs of fluorescent tags from their three-color system, Pederson and colleagues showed that it's possible to plot where a chromosome is inside the cell nucleus and where it is in relation to other chromosomes. Their CRISPR app can also measure the distance between two points on the same chromosome, giving a read-out of chromosome compaction, which is a key factor in gene expression.
Precisely locating chromosomes in the nucleus of living cells has been a holy grail in cell biology since 1968, when Joseph Gall and Mary Lou Pardue first demonstrated the detection of specific loci. That discovery helped open the era of genetic testing, but the early techniques required "fixed," i.e. dead, cells. In the intervening years, researchers have adapted new methods to probe live cells including transcription activator-like effectors (TALEs), which Ma and Pederson had recently introduced for lighting up genetic loci in living cells. But they subsequently came to believe that the rapidly emerging CRISPR system promised a more accurate map of a living nucleus and would be easier for scientists to employ.
Using their multicolored system, they were able to determine common locations for several chromosomes. Among their findings was that gene-rich chromosome 19 tends to be located in the middle of the nucleus, whereas gene-poor chromosome 18 is at the periphery. Also staying close to the center of the nucleus were chromosome 17 and five of the so-called acrocentric chromosomes, which have their distinctive centromeres close to the ends of one arm. One of the five acrocentrics is chromosome 21; the presence of an extra copy of chromosome 21 is called trisomy 21, and is the diagnostic marker for Down syndrome. Meanwhile, chromosomes 3 and 7 were at or close to the nuclear periphery.
The researchers were also able to distinguish the different locations for each diploid copy of the genes involved in organizing the nucleolus. The researchers say that they have plans to further tweak their two-color technique to study translocations--the abnormal switching of chromosomal segments--in human tumor cells.
Ultimately, the GPS app will provides scientists a new toolkit for "studying the 4D nucleome and the regulation of eukaryotic gene expression across a broad landscape of cell types and stages of development, differentiation and human disease," the authors state in their publication.

University of Illinois President Robert Easter on Wednesday endorsed a new medical school at the Urbana-Champaign campus, the most significant signal yet that the project will go forward.
The idea of an engineering-based medical school has been championed for a year by campus Chancellor Phyllis Wise, who has called it a "game-changer" and one that is necessary for the university to compete in fields such as biomedicine. The new school would be separate from the university's existing College of Medicine, which is overseen by the University of Illinois at Chicago campus.
"I truly believe we are on the cusp of transformational changes in health care and health care delivery," Easter said at a board of trustees' committee meeting Wednesday afternoon. "The University of Illinois has an opportunity to gain a position of national leadership in this new era."
Easter recommended that the board approve the campus' proposal at its meeting Thursday. Board approval would mean that the campus could begin steps to open the school, including entering into a contract with partner Carle Health System. The first class of medical students could begin as soon as fall 2017.
The proposal calls for a small, specialized engineering-based medical college with up to 50 students per class. The college would draw on the university's strengths in engineering and technology to graduate physician-scientists and engineers who may work in clinical practice but also would have the skills and inclination to develop new medical equipment and innovations.
"When we think about health care, it is going to be all about new sensors, new materials, new robotics, new imaging, new uses of big data put to application in the field of medicine. We have a unique capacity to do this," Wise said in an interview with the Tribune. "When I think about the next 150 years and how the College of Medicine will add to our ability to have a huge impact, it is a game-changer."
As proposed, the new school would not rely on state funding. It would be supported in part through a partnership with Carle Health System. The health system has pledged $100 million over the first 10 years. Other revenue would come from tuition, donors, grants and contracts, patient fees and the commercialization of medical technology. Wise said the goal is to secure $135 million from donors in the first 10 years, and that one donor has committed $10 million.
Wise has said that without a medical school, the state's flagship public campus is at risk of falling behind its peers, as it can't compete for certain grants or attract and retain researchers and scientists whose work relies on a medical school.
Trustees at Wednesday's meeting seemed poised to approve the plan, though some wanted assurance that a new medical school would not drain financial resources from other academic programs. Easter said that the plan to partner with a private entity could serve as a model for future programs as state funding declines. He also said he was initially "skeptical" of the financial feasibility of the plan but has come around.
"For me, the financial risk makes sense, the need makes sense and we need to make sure the two colleges are working in full unison to the extent they can to make both enterprises better," said Patrick Fitzgerald, a trustee.

The former Hoffmann-La Roche site in Clifton and Nutley.
The state Board of Medical Examiners has approved the opening of a new medical school at the former Hoffmann-LaRoche site in Clifton and Nutley.
The conditional approval is the first of two application processes for the venture between Hackensack University Medical Centers parent company and Seton Hall University, which is planning to open a four-year, private medical school in 2017.
First we have to be licensed through the state, said Robert C. Garrett, president and chief executive officer of Hackensack University Health Network. Now were through. It was a big hurdle.
The next move is to get approval from the Liaison Committee for Medical Education, a branch of the American Medical Association, which takes a look at their dean, curriculum and facilities. That process is expected to take 12 to 15 months.
Its a tight timetable, but we hope to welcome the first class in the fall of 2017, Garrett said.
The new school, as yet unnamed would be the first private medical school to open in New Jersey in 50 years.
The school is expected to have 125 to 150 students in each class when it matures, an effort that is expected to ease the shortage of physicians in New Jersey. By 2020, the nation will need 50,000 more physicians, experts say.
Architects are working to redesign two buildings the medical school will take over at the 116-acre campus.

Carle Foundation Hospital in Urbana.
URBANA With trustee approval expected today, the University of Illinois will be on a "fast march" toward opening a new College of Medicine in Urbana by the fall 2017 target, officials say.
The engineering-based medical school, to be developed in partnership with Carle Health System, was endorsed Wednesday by UI President Bob Easter and received support from UI trustees, though they voiced concerns about long-term financing.
"We ask these questions because ... we have high aspirations for this medical school," Trustee James Montgomery said at a board committee meeting. "We're getting ready now to embark on a cutting-edge medical engineering project that can bring to this university the kind of prestige that its engineering department currently enjoys. All I hear is commitment around this table."
A formal vote is scheduled at this morning's board meeting in Urbana.
After studying the proposal for more than a year, Easter recommended that trustees move ahead with plans for the independently accredited medical school fusing engineering, technology, big data and medicine.
He said it would "advance the research capabilities of the Urbana campus, not only in engineering and biological sciences but in other areas." It also has the potential to promote Champaign-Urbana as a "biomedical research hub and enhance regional economic development and beyond," he said.
Carle has pledged $100 million over 10 years for the new medical school, which is designed to use no state funding. Carle and the UI are negotiating a draft memorandum of understanding "that would constitute a nonbinding, good-faith commitment to the proposed project," Easter's resolution says. Easter said he hopes that can be wrapped up by May.
The resolution recommends that any agreement with Carle include a provision that "if for any reason Carle is unable or unwilling to execute the agreement and perform its obligations under it, the university will not seek to replace Carle as a partner and clinical provider and will not pursue a separately accredited College of Medicine on the Urbana-Champaign campus."

URBANA After a year of study, a proposal for a new engineering-focused medical school in Urbana could get a green light from top university administrators today.
UI President Bob Easter, who is scheduled to give his recommendation to UI trustees this afternoon, has held his conclusions close to the vest, with numerous administrators and faculty saying this week they didn't know what the president will say.
But there's an "expectant buzz" on campus, as one professor put it, and one trustee said Tuesday he expected the decision to be favorable to Urbana.
"My understanding is that it will be a recommendation to go forward," said Board of Trustees' Chairman Edward McMillan.
Easter will present a resolution on the proposal at a videoconferenced meeting of the Board of Trustees' Academic and Student Affairs Committee this afternoon in Urbana. Trustees are scheduled to vote on the resolution Thursday morning when they meet at the Illini Union.
Last spring, at the direction of Chancellor Phyllis Wise, consultants proposed a small medical school fusing medicine, bioengineering and "big data," developed in partnership with Carle Health System. As designed, it would use no state funding; Carle has pledged more than $100 million over the first 10 years.
It would be independent of the existing College of Medicine headquartered in Chicago, which operates regional campuses in Peoria, Rockford and Urbana.

The number of doctors trained in Washington could double in the next few years.
Legislation giving Washington State University the green light to establish a medical school in Spokane passed in the Washington State Senate on Tuesday morning, hours after an identical bill cleared the House of Representatives.
State Sen. Michael Baumgartner, R-Spokane: This shouldnt be the Apple Cup of medical education. This is really a choice for more doctors.
The legislation repeals a 98-year-old law that gives the University of Washington sole authority to operate a state-sponsored medical school. It also repeals a forestry school monopoly given to the UW in 1917.
Don Barbieri, a WSU Regent, described as great news the votes in Olympia. Elson Floyd, WSUs president, called the Legislatures action a powerful message that a century old policy is inadequate to the needs of 21st -entury Washington.
But the Legislature has yet to authorize any money to pay for the WSU med school. Wazzu is asking for $2.5 million to hire faculty and pursue accreditation. Eventually, with classes of 120 entering students, about $40 million would be needed to pay the states share of medical education.
The University of Washington Medical School accepts 120 students from this state each year. Yet, a total of 350 Washington undergraduates go on to study medicine, nearly two-thirds of them in out-of-state schools.
This shouldnt be the Apple Cup of medical education: This is really a choice for more doctors, said state Sen. Michael Baumgartner, R-Spokane, sponsor of the legislation. It passed by a 45-4 vote in the Legislature;s upper chamber.
The House vote was 85-17. We have a growing need in our state: We are not meeting that need currently or looking to the future, said State Rep. Marcus Riccelli, D-Spokane. We can do better in this state and change this 100-year-old law. This is about community based medical education. This is about patient-care access.
In a statement that will be tested, Riccelli argued that Spokane possesses the needed infrastructure to hit the ground running right away.

A WSU medical school in Spokane gets thumbs up from Legislature
Though the passage of identical bills in the state House on Monday and Senate on Tuesday looks promising for Washington State Universitys desire to build a new medical school, neither piece of legislation contains any money or funding mechanism.
Rather, if one passes both chambers and gets signed by the governor, Senate Bill 5487 and companion House Bill 1559 would clear the way for WSU to pursue accreditation for its own school, amending a nearly 100-year-old law that split up degree programs between WSU and the University of Washington.
Funding is still a huge unknown, as the state is strapped for cash. But a third medical school in the state specifically at WSUs Spokane campus is much needed, says Pacific Northwest University of Health Sciences President Dr. Keith Watson.
PNWU and the UW together simply cannot produce enough primary care physicians to both alleviate the existing shortages and replace those physicians retiring from practice in the coming years, Watson wrote in an op-ed piece distributed Monday.
The UW med school is built on the WWAMI model, receiving state funding from Washington, Wyoming, Alaska, Montana and Idaho to serve as the medical school for the five-state area. But that means only about half of UWs roughly 240 class spots each year go to Washington state students, Watson said Tuesday in an interview.
We need to make sure that whatever state dollars are invested are put into a program that delivers the goods, Watson said.
But it makes no sense to put a lot more dollars into the UW system thats incredibly expensive, and to keep doing the same old thing, but deny WSU money to get its own community-based medical school started, he said. I think we need to look at innovative ways, and I think WSU has put a good alternative on the table that should be funded.
In particular, he said, the goods need to be primary care doctors, in chronic shortage on this side of the state. PNWU was founded to specifically address that need, and Watson says a WSU medical school is necessary to fill the void, as well.
In this five-state catchment, theres over 9,000 physicians over the age of 60, and thus nearing retirement, he said. With only four medical schools UW, PNWU, Oregon University of Health Sciences in Portland and the University of Utah School of Medicine, two of which arent even in the catchment area were not gonna be able to produce enough physicians to replace them.
With such a looming shortage, Watson said, he doesnt see a WSU medical school as a potential competitor. Applicants may prefer one school over the other, but with PNWU now receiving more than 4,000 applications for its 135 class spots, there will be no dearth of aspiring medical students.

Newswise The University of Chicago Pritzker School of Medicine moved up a notch to regain its top 10 status as one of the countrys best medical schools and its primary care program scored its strongest rating since 2010, according to the latest edition of U.S. News & World Reports Best Graduate Schools.
The rankings for 2016 are an improvement over last year when Pritzker placed 11th out of 153 medical schools for research. It placed No. 8 in the 2014 rankings and No. 10 in the 2013 list. Pritzker remains the only school in Illinois to be ranked among the top 10. Meanwhile, its primary care program was tied for the 19th spot. That ranking is up from No. 26 for 2015 and 39 for 2014.
Tuesdays results placed Pritzker in a three-way tie with the University of Michigan and the University of Washington. Harvard University ranked first in the nation, followed by Stanford University, Johns Hopkins University, University of California-San Francisco and the University of Pennsylvania. Other schools in the top 10 included Washington University in St. Louis, Yale University, Columbia University and Duke University.
The methodology for the medical school rankings includes scores based on reputation, which is assessed by deans and program directors. Other factors include competitiveness of students, acceptance rates, faculty-student ratios and research funding. The full list of U.S. News medical school rankings is available at usnews.com.
Pritzker was third in the country for the amount of federal research grants it received per faculty member from the National Institutes of Health. Pritzker received an average of $255,800 for each faculty member, behind only Stanford University ($381,800) and New York University ($333,700). Meanwhile, the school was tied with Stanford University as the third-most selective medical school, earning high marks for its median MCAT score, the median undergraduate GPA of its students and its overall acceptance rate. Washington University in St. Louis and the University of Pennsylvania earned higher selectivity scores.
Other programs within the Biological Sciences Division had their 2015 results re-published Tuesday. Last years report said PhD programs in the Biological Sciences Division were ranked 14th in the country. The University of Chicago paleontology program, which draws from the interdepartmental and inter-institutional Committee on Evolutionary Biology, was rated No. 1 in the nation. And the schools Ecology/Evolutionary Biology program tied for 4th. Those rankings will be updated in three years.
### About the University of Chicago Medicine
