Administration of the Health Sciences Center at New Orleans

LARRY H. HOLLIER, MD

APPOINTED CHANCELLOR FEBRUARY 3, 2006

APPOINTED ACTING CHANCELLOR NOVEMBER 14, 2005

Dr. Larry H. Hollier has served as Chancellor of LSU Health Sciences Center New Orleans since November 14, 2005. Comprising six health professions schools, LSU Health Sciences Center New Orleans educates Louisiana’s health workforce, research scientists, and public health policymakers. Dr. Hollier is also a practicing vascular surgeon.

Dr. Hollier was President and Chief Operating Officer of The Mount Sinai Hospital in New York before being recruited to lead his alma mater, the School of Medicine at LSU Health Sciences Center New Orleans, where he earned his medical degree in 1968 and was named Chief Resident in Surgery in 1974. Following a brief stint in the U.S. Air Force, Dr. Hollier entered academic medicine with an appointment to the LSUHSC faculty in 1975.

Dr. Hollier was appointed Dean on January 1, 2004. During his first 18 months, he reorganized the Dean’s office and redefined fiscal control of the School of Medicine. He implemented mission based budgeting, aligning pay with performance, and allowing reallocation of an additional $7 million to support the basic science and translational research efforts. As a result of the increased growth of research, the school’s NIH funding increased over 50%. Dr. Hollier continued to serve as both Chancellor and Dean of Medicine until September 2007 when he appointed Dr. Steve Nelson as Dean of Medicine.
