Cal J. Halvorsen, a gerontological social work scholar and an associate professor at the WashU Brown School, will step into a new leadership role this summer as co-director of the Harvey A. Friedman Center for Aging.
Beginning in July, Halvorsen will share leadership of the center with Brian Carpenter, a professor of psychological and brain in WashU Arts & Sciences. Halvorsen succeeds Nancy Morrow-Howell, the Betty Bofinger Brown Distinguished Professor of Social Policy at the Brown School, who is stepping back after more than a decade as co-director. Morrow-Howell will remain involved as a senior adviser.
Halvorsen also will serve as assistant dean for faculty affairs at the Brown School beginning July 1. Read more on the Brown School website.
