“It is an incredible honor to be selected for the Norton M.

When I look at the individuals who have been selected before me, I am humbled to be among such a distinguished group.”

In addition to her position as dean, Dr. McCauley is the William K. and Mary Anne Najjar professor of periodontics at the University of Michigan School of Dentistry. She is also a professor of pathology at the University of Michigan School of Medicine. For more than twenty years, Dr. McCauley has led an active research program in hormonal controls of bone remodeling, parathyroid hormone anabolic actions in bone, and prostate cancer skeletal metastasis.
