Dr. Steven A. Rasmussen: from Brown alum to department chair.

PROVIDENCE – Dr. Steven A. Rasmussen, the newly appointed chair of the Department of Psychiatry and Human Behavior at The Warren Alpert Medical School of Brown University, recently reflected on his more than three decades at Brown. In an interview with the Rhode Island Medical Journal at his office on the Butler Hospital campus he recalled his early years in the 1970s as an undergraduate, when the “new” curriculum was new, and Stanley M. Aronson, MD, was dean of the fledgling medical program.
