Leadership

As a strategic initiative between Michigan Medicine (MM) and the U-M College of Engineering (CoE), e-HAIL uses a joint leadership model with co-lead faculty conveners from MM and the CoE working together with the e-HAIL manager.

We draw upon the insights from advisory conveners representing Schools and Colleges across campus.
