Case Western Reserve's Board of Trustees has delegated to the university faculty, through elected leadership, certain powers and responsibilities concerning educational, research and scholarly activities.
Roger French, PhD
Roger H. French has spent his career connecting disciplines—and people—through data.
An internationally recognized scientist, educator and innovator, French is known for transforming how researchers understand the lifecycle of materials.
French, the Kyocera Professor of Ceramics in the Department of Materials Science and Engineering, joined the Case School of Engineering faculty in 2010 following a distinguished quarter-century career at DuPont. His decision was driven by a desire to explore the emerging frontiers of big data, distributed computing, and lifetime science.
Jonathan L. Haines, PhD
Jonathan L. Haines has built a career on asking bold questions—and designing the tools needed to answer them.
For more than four decades, his groundbreaking discoveries have advanced our understanding of complex human diseases, while his leadership and mentorship have helped shape the future of genetic medicine.
From the earliest days of the genomic era, Haines has been a force in the field. In the late 1980s and early ’90s, he helped identify genetic variants involved in Huntington’s disease, tuberous sclerosis, and neurofibromatosis—work that clarified how different mutations can cause the same condition, a concept known as locus heterogeneity.
