Texas Making Bid for Leading Health Law Expert Sage at Columbia, Who Will Visit 05-06

William Sage, a JD/MD at Columbia Law School, who is widely considered the leading health law scholar of his generation in the academy, has a permanent offer from the University of Texas at Austin, and will be a visiting professor at the Law School during 2005-06.  In the past this strategy has worked well for us (in recent years, Jane Cohen from Boston University and Larry Sager from New York University both made the permanent move after visiting), and we are hopeful that Professor Sage will join our other recent recruits to the faculty.
