Jowers named VP for Health Affairs

Ronnie Jowers, associate vice president for Health Affairs since 1991, has been promoted to vice president for Health Affairs at the recommendation of Executive Vice President for Health Affairs Michael Johns and President Bill Chace.

Jowers' responsibilities haven't changed, but Johns said the new title better reflects the broad strategic responsibilities Jowers meets every day-and better recognizes the growth and complexity of the Woodruff Health Sciences Center and Emory Healthcare enterprise over the past four years.
