Neurologist Named New Dean of School of Behavioral and Brain Sciences
Neurologist Named New Dean of School of Behavioral and Brain Sciences Dr. Steven L. Small, professor of neurology at the University of California, Irvine and director and chief scientific officer of the Medical Innovation Institute at the UC Irvine School of Medicine, has accepted appointment as dean of the School of Behavioral and Brain Sciences(BBS) at The University of Texas at Dallas.
New Researchers Bolster BBS’ Strength in Neuroscience, Psychology
The School of Behavioral and Brain Sciences (BBS) at The University of Texas of Dallas has added four tenure-track faculty since January, including new dean Dr. Steven Small who arrived in April.

The school also hired neurobiology professor Dr. Ana Solodkin and two assistant professors — Dr. Kendra Seaman and Dr. Meghan Swanson.

“BBS continues to evolve as we bring neurobiology, psychology, and speech, language, and hearing sciences together to understand brain and behavior across the lifespan,” Small said. “Our new hires each address this from a different angle.”
