Dartmouth-Hitchcock Medical Center, the Geisel School of Medicine and the Dartmouth Cancer Center seek to recruit outstanding physician scientists who will advance our Centers commitment to Diversity, Equity, Inclusion & Belonging, either through their lived experience or through their academic work for the Couch Family Inclusive Excellence Faculty Program.The Couch Family Inclusive Excellence Faculty Program was endowed in 2022 by generous and committed donors Richard W. and Barbara J. Couch for the express purpose of supporting early career physician-scientists working in cancer research at the Dartmouth Cancer Center (DCC). The Couch Faculty Program is designed to help recruit faculty who will advance DCCs commitment to diversity by providing 40% protected time for research to accelerate their careers in cancer science.
