CONVENTION

USP Officers and Trustees Appoint Four New Trustees—At its May meeting, the Board of Trustees appointed four new trustees to serve until 2015. Two of the new trustees will replace two resigning Board members, At-Large Trustee Frank J. Sasinowski, M.S., M.P.H., J.D. and Medical Sciences Trustee Lisa A. Cooper, M.D., M.P.H., who resigned from the Board in April for personal reasons. The Board appointed two additional trustees to provide leadership in newly evolving areas for the organization. The Bylaws give the Board authority to fill vacancies and add up to three At-Large Trustees during the cycle. It is, therefore, our pleasure to introduce USP's four newest Trustees:

Medical Sciences Trustee

Michael D. Maves, M.D., M.B.A., Executive Vice President and CEO of the American Medical Association and a speaker at the 2010 Convention

At-Large Trustees

Robert L. Buchanan, Ph.D., Professor and Director, Center for Food Safety and Security Systems, University of Maryland

Thomas E. Menighan, B.S.Pharm., M.B.A., Sc.D., FAPhA, Executive Vice President and CEO of the American Pharmacists Association and a speaker at the 2010 Convention

Jeffrey L. Sturchio, Ph.D., President and CEO of the Global Health Council
