In this role, she supported faculty career development, oversaw policies related to faculty appointments and promotions, represented the Dean on senior faculty searches, and worked one-on-one with faculty to provide career support. Dr. Connelly’s academic appointment was in the Department of Population Medicine at the Harvard Pilgrim Health Care Institute, which she first joined as a fellow soon after the Department was founded and later joined as faculty. Her research focus was on women’s health and patient decision-making. She previously practiced as a primary care physician and, in collaboration with the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology at Harvard Vanguard Medical Associates, she developed a menopause consultation service.
