Gail E. Besner, MD, is a member of the UC College of Medicine Class of 1982 and is currently the H. William Clatworthy Jr. Professor of Surgery and chief of the Department of Pediatric Surgery at Nationwide Children’s Hospital in Columbus. She also is chief of the Division of Pediatric Surgery at the Ohio State University College of Medicine.
An outstanding pediatric surgeon and scientist, Dr. Besner is an expert in necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC), a deadly inflammatory and infectious disease of the intestine of neonates, with a mortality rate of up to 50%. During the last 30 years, she has deciphered the pathophysiology of NEC, potential ways to protect neonates from the disease and therapeutic interventions to treat and prevent NEC without surgical intervention. She and colleagues have developed a novel delivery system in which the probiotic Limosilactobacillus reuteri (Lr) is administered in its biofilm state, which has been shown to protect the intestines and brain from NEC. An FDA-approved phase 1 clinical trial of the probiotic in adults with autism spectrum disorder has been completed, demonstrating its safety and showing significant improvements in the participants’ autism scores. She is a scientific co-founder of Scioto Biosciences, Inc, which is bringing this treatment to patients.
Dr. Besner has been instrumental in graduate medical education, serving as the director of the Pediatric Surgery Training Program at Nationwide Children’s Hospital from 2009 to 2014, and as associate director from 2014 to the present. Additionally, Dr. Besner annually trains aspiring pediatric surgeons from all over the country and abroad, as well as medical students, college students and even high school students, in her laboratory.
She has served as chair of the American Academy of Pediatrics Section on Surgery and the Surgical Research Committee of the American College of Surgeons (ACS), and has served on the Board of Governors of the American Pediatric Surgical Association. In 2021, Dr. Besner received the Sheen Award from the ACS, awarded to those on the frontier of medical science doing work with great promise. She was recently chosen as the 2024 Nationwide Children’s Hospital Allen Distinguished Scholar in Pediatric Research, awarded for scientific innovation and achievement in the prevention of childhood disease.
After graduating from the College of Medicine, Dr. Besner completed her general surgery residency at the Brigham and Women’s Hospital in Boston and then spent two years as a research fellow in the Boston Children’s Hospital laboratory of Judah Folkman, MD, the founder of the field of angiogenesis. It was during that time that she discovered a new growth factor known as heparin-binding EGF-like growth factor.
Dr. Besner completed her pediatric surgery fellowship at the Children’s Hospital of Buffalo before joining Nationwide Children’s Hospital and the faculty at Ohio State in 1991
James P. Herman, PhD, is the Flor van Maanen Professor of Pharmacology and Therapeutics and, since 2018, the chair of the Department of Pharmacology and Systems Physiology at the UC College of Medicine.
An internationally recognized expert in stress neurobiology, Dr. Herman is one of the most influential researchers in the field. His research has been responsible for uncovering the molecular basis of how the brain responds to stress and how a person’s response to stress can contribute to a variety of neurological diseases. He is most well-known for discovering the neuro-anatomical pathways that process stressful information and lead to adaptive or maladaptive physiological and behavioral responses.
Dr. Herman’s work has provided pivotal insight into how brain regions, such as the hippocampus, amygdala, prefrontal cortex and hypothalamus, work together to guide stress physiology. This landmark research established an understanding of the brain’s neurocircuit mechanisms and has been instrumental in the design of contemporary human neuroimaging approaches.
Additionally, studies in his laboratory showed the important involvement of the glucocorticoid receptor in chronic and acute stress as well as aging. This work proved the importance of the forebrain glucocorticoid receptor for stress inhibition and that it is required for anticipatory, but not reactive, responses. More recently, they demonstrated that the glucocorticoid receptor in the infralimbic cortex is required for inhibition of responses to anticipatory stimuli, and is critical for constraint of stress reactivity following chronic stress in a sex-specific manner. Collectively, this underscores the importance of glucocorticoid receptor signaling to stress reactivity in a neurocircuit context.
His work in the area of stress has led to Dr. Herman being asked by organizations, such as the National Academy of Sciences, American Physiological Society, Society for Biological Psychiatry and Public Responsibility in Medicine and Research, to provide expert opinions on the care and use of animals in research, culminating in the generation of the National Research Council’s guide on the recognition and alleviation of stress in lab animals.
Dr. Herman is the co-editor of the influential 2007 book “Sex Differences in the Brain” and has served as editor-in-chief of the scientific journal Stress since 2012. He is a founding organizer of the international conference Stress Neurobiology Workshop.
His more than three decades of innovative research led to him receiving the Lifetime Achievement Award in 2020 from the International Society for Psychoneuroendocrinology. In 2016, Dr. Herman was named a Distinguished University Professor at the University of Cincinnati.
Dr. Herman received his doctorate in neurobiology and anatomy from the University of Rochester and was a postdoctoral fellow at the University of Michigan Mental Health
Research Institute. He joined the faculty of the University of Kentucky School of Medicine in 1991 and, since 2000, has been a faculty member at the UC College of Medicine.

Daniel Woo, MD
Daniel Woo, MD, is a leader in stroke research with significant contributions to the understanding of the epidemiology of stroke, particularly intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH). A professor and vice chair of clinical research in the University of Cincinnati College of Medicine Department of Neurology and Rehabilitation Medicine, he has been during the last decade one of the highest funded researchers by the National Institute of Neurological Diseases. Among his important contributions was to establish that the impact of hypertension on ICH, which occurs in the cerebral lobes, was much less than previously thought and that risk factors for cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA) accounted for a much greater risk in lobar regions of the brain. CAA was once considered a rare cause of ICH, but Dr. Woo’s research showed that up to a third of all lobar ICHs may be caused by CAA, establishing it as a major mechanism of ICH. Through his research, Dr. Woo led the first large-scale genomewide association study for ICH. His research also has had a specific focus for the disproportionate risk among African Americans and Hispanics, including identifying variation in the strength of traditional risk factors by race/ethnicity as well as by sex. This identification then replicated in multiple cerebral small vessel disease phenotypes and Dr. Woo’s research then performed deep sequencing, RNA sequencing and direct protein measurements to identify a potential novel risk factor for ICH as well as cerebral small vessel disease. In addition, Dr. Woo has been evaluating stroke recovery with a particular focus on ICH. His research has demonstrated that a chronic inflammatory state may exist after ICH which can last for years after the stroke. If so, he hopes to identify a treatment that may reduce the inflammation and the long-term cognitive deficits associated with it. In addition to these additions to the ICH literature, Dr. Woo is leading a study on how advanced neuroimaging techniques may be able to predict recovery after ICH. By better defining the prediction of outcomes, patient selection for treatment studies, as well as identifying novel molecular targets for intervention, may be discovered. Dr. Woo received his medical degree in 1994 and a master’s degree in molecular genetics in 2004 from the UC College of Medicine. He completed his residency in neurology at the Cleveland Clinic and then returned to the UC College of Medicine for a fellowship in cerebrovascular disorders. Dr. Woo joined the College of Medicine faculty in 1999. Since 2014, he has served as associate director of clinical research for the UC Gardner Neuroscience Institute and, from 2009 until 2019, he was the associate director of the UC Center for Environmental Genetics. Dr. Woo has received numerous UC honors, including the Faculty Excellence Award (2020), Excellence Award for Faculty-to-Faculty Research Mentoring (2018) and the College of Medicine Research Service Award (2016). In 2004 he received the Robert G. Siekert American Heart Association New Investigator in Stroke Award.

Melanie T. Cushion, PhD
Melanie T. Cushion, PhD, is senior associate dean for research and professor in the Department of Internal Medicine, Division of Infectious Diseases, at the College of Medicine, and one of 50 Veterans Affairs (VA) senior research career scientists in the country. She is an internationally recognized expert in the field of fungi, having researched fungal pathogens for more than 30 years. Early in her career, Dr. Cushion began working with organisms referred to as Pneumocystis, the leading killer of patients with advanced HIV infection in the early years of the AIDS epidemic. At that time, these microbes were thought to be protozoans, but her work with others in the college led to the discovery that they were actually fungal pathogens. She later initiated the Pneumocystis Genome Project, which helped to understand the metabolism and genetics of the fungus, and her laboratory was the first to report Pneumocystis carinii possesses a linear mitochondrial genome. Further work in her lab also showed that Pneumocystis were highly efficient in transmission of infection. Recent research by Dr. Cushion led to the identification of Pneumocystis sexual reproduction as a new drug target. Inhibition of this mode of reproduction by the anti-fungal echinocandins resulted in prevention and eradication of Pneumocystis pneumonia, an entirely new paradigm. Dr. Cushion's research program has been funded since 1987 through more than $30 million in grants from the VA, National Institutes of Health and National Science Foundation. She is a member of the Joint Program Committee-2 (JPC-2), the advisory body to the JPC-2 Chair for the Defense Health Program Military Infectious Diseases Research Program, and is a fellow of the American Academy of Microbiology and of the Hedwig van Ameringen Executive Leadership in Academic Medicine® (ELAM) Program. As senior associate dean since 2013, Dr. Cushion has established several internal grant programs, grant pre-review workshops and training sessions, symposia and recognition awards for College of Medicine research faculty and staff. She has mentored and trained numerous graduate students, junior faculty, postdoctoral and infectious diseases fellows. In 2017, she was honored with the Antimicrobial Research Award from the American Society for Microbiology.
