The search for a new dean of Pitt's Gradu- ate School of Public Health (GSPH) has narrowed to four candidates:

* Bernard D. Goldstein, director of the Environmental and Occupational Health Sciences Institute, jointly administered by Rutgers and the University of Medicine and Dentistry of New Jersey.

* Thomas A. Pearson, Albert D. Kaiser Professor and chairperson of the Department of Community and Preventive Medicine and professor of medicine at the University of Rochester School of Medicine.

* Carol Redmond, GSPH vice dean for academic affairs and Distinguished Service Professor of Biostatistics.

* Thomas M. Saba, senior vice president for research and H.C. Wiggers Professor and chairperson of physiology and cell biology at Albany Medical College.

"The search committee is making its final dean recommendations to Senior Vice Chancellor for Health Sciences Arthur Levine from this list of candidates," said GSPH search committee chairperson Loren Roth.

Herbert Rosenkranz has served as interim dean of GSPH since November 1998, when Donald R. Mattison resigned as dean.
