 r of the Howard Hughes Medical Institute and a Professor of Internal Medic
 ine and Molecular Genetics at the University of Texas Southwestern Medical
  Center. She obtained her undergraduate degree from Stanford University pr
 ior to attending Case Western Reserve University School of Medicine. After
  completing an internship in internal medicine at Columbia-Presbyterian Me
 dical Center\, she moved to Dallas\, Texas where she finished her clinical
  training and served as chief resident in internal medicine at Parkland Me

 Drs. Michael Brown and Joseph Goldstein before joining the faculty of UT S
 outhwestern in 1987. She is Director of the McDermott Center for Human Gro
 wth and Development\, which serves as the Center for Human Genetics at UT 
 Southwestern.  She is also Director of the Dallas Heart Study\, a longitud
 inal\, multiethnic\, population-based study of Dallas County. Her work foc
 uses on defining the genetic determinants of plasma lipid levels and cardi
 ovascular risk. Most recently\, she has identified genetic variations that
