Vivian S. Lee (born 1966), an American radiologist, is CEO of University of Utah Health Care[3] in Salt Lake City and Dean of the University of Utah School of Medicine and senior vice president for health sciences of University of Utah.[4] Lee is a Rhodes Scholar, has published more than 150 peer-reviewed studies, and is the author of Cardiovascular MRI: Physical Principles to Practical Protocols.[1] Lee is a recognized leader in academic medicine and health care, is a member of the National Academy of Medicine, and serves on the National Institutes of Health Council of Councils. She is married to international legal scholar Benedict Kingsbury.

Education and research

Lee graduated from Harvard-Radcliffe College magna cum laude in 1986 before receiving a Rhodes Scholarship to study at University of Oxford where she received a doctorate in medical engineering.[5] She then earned an M.D. with honors from Harvard Medical School and subsequently completed a residency in diagnostic radiology at Duke University[6] and a fellowship in MRI at NYU Medical Center.

In 2006, she completed a Master of Business Administration degree at NYU's Stern School of Business. Lee is currently the principal investigator for two NIH R01 grants. Her research focuses on development of quantitative functional body and cardiovascular MRI.

Academic experience

Before joining the University of Utah, Lee served as Senior Vice President and Chief Scientific Officer[7] at NYU's Langone Medical Center. As CEO of University of Utah Health Care, Lee oversees an academic health sciences complex that includes five major schools (School of Medicine, School of Dentistry, and colleges of Nursing, Pharmacy and Health) and a health care system comprising four hospitals, dozens of clinical and research specialty centers, a network of 10 Salt Lake City-area health centers, a health plan, and over 1,000 board-certified physicians serving patients from six mountain west states. Under her leadership, the University of Utah established a new School of Dentistry, the first new academic dental school in the nation in over 25 years.

Work at the University of Utah

Lee came to the University of Utah in July 2011 and has focused on increased efficiency in health care, translational research that can change medicine, and innovation to spur new technology and medical breakthroughs. During her tenure, the University of Utah Health Sciences Center budget has grown to $3.3 billion and now serves an extensive regional affiliation network. The following additional projects have been implemented during her tenure:

Awards and recognition

In her academic career Lee was awarded a Rhodes Scholarship to study at Oxford University. Lee was named an Outstanding Teacher by the International Society for Magnetic Resonance in Medicine[11] in 2005, 2011 and 2012. She also received the Chang-Lin Tien Leadership award[12] in 2009.Currently, she is on the board of directors at Zions Bank, Merrimack Pharmaceuticals, and the American Association of Rhodes Scholars. She also is part of the Journal of the American Medical Association Journal Oversight Committee, the National Advisory Committee for the Health Care Delivery System Reform Program of The Commonwealth Fund, the Scientific Advisory Board of Massachusetts General Hospital, the Council of Councils of the National Institutes of Health, and the Administrative Board of the Council of Deans for the Association of American Medical Colleges.
