Kent State Uni-versity, The Univer-sity of Akron and Youngstown State University respond-ed to a challenge that could address the need for prima-ry care physicians while using exist-ing facilities of the three universities.

In August 1973, the Ohio General Assembly passed Senate Bill 72 es-tablishing the North-eastern Ohio Uni-versities College of Medicine (NEOU-COM) to meet a crit-ical need for prima-ry care physicians in Northeast Ohio.

In 1974, NEOU-COM purchased Sun-ny Lane Farms in Rootstown, a 53-acre farm, from Bry-an and Dorothy Jones as the home for the basic medical sci-ences campus.

On Dec. 17, 1975, about 450 people at-tended the ground-breaking ceremonies for the Northeast-ern Ohio Universi-ties College of Med-icine (NEOUCOM).

On April 14, 1976, the College of Med-icine received a let-ter of reasonable assurance of ac-creditation from the Liaison Committee on Medical Educa-tion. In 1977 provi-sional accreditation was granted.

In partnership with The Univer-sity of Akron, Kent State University and Youngstown State University, 42 stu-dents were select-ed in September 1977 for the char-ter class.

In 1981, NEOU-COM received full accreditation for the medical por-tion of the college’s six-year combined B.S./M.D. degree program and grad-uated its first class of 42 physicians.

Alpha Omega Alpha, founded in 1902, recognizes and perpetuates ex-cellence in the medi-cal profession. Thirty students in classes 1981-1984 were an-nounced for mem-bership.

Liebelt Hall, a newly renovated area of campus, was completed in September 1984. The new construc-tion housed an au-ditorium that was named for Dr. Rob-ert Liebelt as well as offices and lab-oratories.

The human anat-omy program an-nounced acceptance of body donations in early 1980. The Class of 1988 held the first memorial service at a site in Rootstown’s Home-land Cemetery.

The Collabora-tive Medical Re-search Building, a 38,500-square-foot facility, provided a regional resource for scientific inves-tigation and educa-tion, furthering the mission of the con-sortium.

The regional li-brary depository opened. It allowed The University of Ak-ron, Cleveland State University, Kent State University, NEOU-COM and Youngstown State University to re-move seldom-used materials from their libraries and store them.

In 1994, Ambulo-cetus natans, or the “walking whale,” was recovered from the Upper Kuldana Formation of Paki-stan by NEOUCOM faculty member Jo-hannes G.M. Thew-issen and fellow researcher Sayed Taseer Hussain.

An Alumni As-sociation board of directors laid the foundation for an alumni organiza-tion. A constituion and bylaws were approved and of-ficers elected.

On May 24, 1996, an outdoor amphi-theater was dedicat-ed in honor of Hip-pocrates, the Greek father of medicine. A bust of Hippocrates bearing the Hip-pocratic Oath was created by sculptor Anna Christoforidis and situated in the amphitheater.

Dr. Colin Camp-bell was honored in 1997 with the dedi-cation of the atrium as the Colin Camp-bell, M.D., Atrium.

NEOUCOM’s first donor memorial was held in 1985.

On May 2, NEOU-COM took the first step in establishing a pharmacy pro-gram and submit-ted its proposal to the Ohio Board of Regents’ Advisory Committee on Grad-uate Study.

NEOUCOM pur-chased nearly 50 acres of land con-tiguous to the north-ern border of its Rootstown-based campus, allowing for expanded facil-ities to accommo-date growing en-rollment and new educational and re-search programs.

On June 24, 2008, House Bill 562 was approved, establish-ing NEOUCOM as an independent health sciences universi-ty serving North-east Ohio.

The NEOUCOM College of Grad-uate Studies was established.

MEDCAMP, a three-day inten-sive immersion ex-perience designed to provide “hands-on” experiences in biomedical science workshops, celebrat-ed its 20th anniver-sary at NEOUCOM.

Gov.John Kasich publicly signed House Bill 139 as approved by the Ohio Gener-al Assembly to of-ficially change the name of Northeast-ern Ohio Universi-ties College of Med-icine (NEOUCOM) to Northeast Ohio Medical University (NEOMED).

In May 2011, NEOMED broke ground for an 80,000-square-foot building. This four-story building was designed to in-clude three floors dedicated to state-of-the-art research laboratories for more than 30 scientists and their teams.

Funding was ap-proved to add 35 ad-ditional students to its College of Med-icine in partnership with Cleveland State University (CSU) and to provide for the es-tablishment of the NEOMED Academ-ic Campus at CSU.

The university and Cleveland State Uni-versity celebrated the official launch of the NEOMED-CSU Urban Prima-ry Care Initiative.

On Aug. 20, 2012, the campus wel-comed the arrival of 70 high school freshmen as the first class of the STEM+M public high school that will be sharing the Rootstown cam-pus and facilities.

Effective Nov. 1, 2012, a campus-wide tobacco-free policy was imple-mented. NEOMED was the first public institution of higher education in Ohio to do so.

The College of Medicine partnered with the Sophie Da-vis School of Bio-medical Education at the City College of New York.

The Miami-NEOMED Bacca-laureate to M.D. Pathway Program was established to recruit students.

The Village, the university’s first-ever on-campus student housing, opened. The 270,000 square foot, $37 mil-lion Village features 339 single and dou-ble, fully furnished rooms.

Cleveland State University and NEOMED broke ground on the health sciences building, set to open in June 2015.

A new partnership between NEOMED and Kent State Uni-versity allows stu-dents to complete a Bachelor of Sci-ence degree and a Doctor of Pharma-cy degree in seven years, rather than the typical eight years

Northeast Ohio Medical University improves the health, economy, and quality of life in Northeast Ohio through the medical, pharmacy and health sciences education of students and practitioners at all levels; the development of new knowledge through research in the biomed-ical, community health and behavioral sciences; and the provision of community service and health education throughout the Northeast Ohio region.

NEOMED has the oldest accelerated, combined degree program in the state of Ohio and one of only 18 accelerated programs in the nation. Students apply to the program during their senior year of high school, and, upon admission, enjoy the benefits of having a reserved seat in medical school when they begin their college program. They earn a combined Bachelor of Science and Doctor of Medicine (B.S./M.D.) de-gree in only six or seven years.

The mission of the Northeast Ohio Medical University College of Med-icine is to graduate exemplary physicians oriented to primary care practice and other needed specialties. We strive to improve the quality of health care in Northeast Ohio through education of medical students, support for residency programs in our affiliated hospitals, continuing professional development of our staff, faculty and regional health pro-fessionals, scholarship, including original research, community service programs, and stewardship for the health of Northeast Ohio.

The mission of the College of Pharmacy is to prepare highly skilled pharmacists who play an indis-pensable role in a team-oriented approach to patient care and medication management services. The College’s unique curriculum intermeshes with that of the College of Medicine to set new stan-dards for interprofessional education, collaboration, community involvement, diversity and lifelong learning.

The mission of the College of Graduate Studies is to instill critical thinking, inspire curiosity, and pro-mote innovation in order to graduate future generations of scientists, researchers, teachers and community leaders who will use the power of education, research and scholarship to positively transform the world.

THE NORTHEAST OHIO Medical University in Root-stown will have a presence

in the newest building at Cleveland State University.

The health sciences building will serve as the home of the NEOMED-CSU Partnership for Urban Health. The building also will house CSU pro-grams offered by the School of Nurs-ing and the School of Health Scienc-es and serve will as the headquarters of CSU’s partnership with NEOMED.

The partnership is dedicated to training physicians and other health professionals that deliver primary care services to metropolitan com-munities.

Set to open in June 2015 on the corner of Euclid Avenue and East 22nd Street, the $45 million,

100,000-square-foot facility will foster interprofessional teaching, learning and research in community-centered health care. NEOMED will enter a 25-year lease to occupy about 20 percent of the new building.

“Northeast Ohio Medical Universi-ty is very proud to be part of this vi-tal partnership with Cleveland State University,” said NEOMED Presi-dent Jay A. Gershen. “Growing needs for health professionals that deliver primary care services have created a great demand for a more diverse health-care workforce with interdisci-plinary skills to care for underserved populations, especially within Amer-ica’s cities. Meeting this demand will be central to the mission of the new health sciences facility.”

The NEOMED-CSU Partnership

for Urban Health is led by Dr. Sonja Harris-Haywood, an award-winning family medicine educator, physician and researcher. The partnership en-courages economically disadvantaged students from Greater Cleveland to complete undergraduate coursework at CSU, enroll in the College of Med-icine at NEOMED to earn a Doctor of Medicine degree, and return after residency to work in medically un-derserved communities in Northeast Ohio. Currently housed in the Union Building at CSU, the partnership admitted its second class in August 2013, with 35 pre-medical students. The Partnership for Urban Health will also recruit and train students from

the other health professions.The Health Sciences facility will in-

clude an Innovation Center, a Speech and Hearing Clinic, nursing simu-lation labs, audiology labs, an oc-cupational therapy/physical thera-py training room, the CSU Health and Wellness Services Department, NEOMED standardized patient exam rooms and more.

“With all of these tremendous as-sets under one roof, we will offer an exceedingly well-rounded and uniquely hands-on education in health care,” said CSU President Berkman. “We hope it will serve as a model for other programs across the country.”

STEMTraining Center

At BIO-MEDThe Bio-Med Science Academy was selected by the Ohio STEM Learning Network to serve as one of its region-al STEM training center sites.Training centers were developed to meet the growing demand for STEM

professional development and pro-vide educators at every school

with the support they need to implement effective STEM edu-cation strategies. As a training center site, the academy will offer training and

consultation to teachers all across Ohio in identified

areas of expertise, including Google

Apps for edu-cators, literacy design collab-orative, math design collabor-

ative, restorative practices, and en-

gineering concepts.

THE BIO-MED SCIENCE Academy, housed on the North-east Ohio Medical University

campus, is a STEM+M (science, tech-nology, engineering, mathematics and medicine) high school. It focuses on these areas of study to help students gain the skills they’ll need to succeed in a demanding world and in econo-mies defined by the quality of the peo-ple working in those fields.

It was rated as the top achieving STEM high school in the state by the Ohio Department of Education, earn-ing an “A” on a performance index of 112.5 out of a possible 120.

With the support and resources of NEOMED, its partner, and the Ohio STEM Learning Network, the Bio-Med Science Academy began its first STEM+M academic year with a fresh-man class of 70 in August 2012.

The nontraditional public high school nurtures students in rigorous ways. They are motivated to think critically, solve complex problems, drive advancements in five key areas

of study, and prepare for real-world liv-ing and working.

In 2014, the Bio-Med Science Acad-emy moved into its new home on the third floor of the NEOMED Education and Wellness Center — or NEW Cen-ter. A total of about 258 students occu-py the space.

Bio-Med Science Academy junior Ella Moreland of Palmyra, accompa-nied by fellow juniors Adam Schmitt of Streetsboro and Stephen Orona of Ravenna, said it is nice to have a place dedicated to their education. Before, the students had classes in a specific area each school year, but were unable to have access to specialized equip-ment, such as a “Shop Bot” and a 3-D printer.

“It feels like a real high school now,” Moreland said.

Stephanie Lammlein, director of the academy, said juniors are busy planning their senior project for next year, when the inaugural class graduates.

The Bio-Med floor has two common areas, one for quiet study and the oth-

er for more interaction. On the walls are dry erase boards meant for collab-oration.

A common theme of the space is cir-cles, and Lammlein explains that her “obsession” with circles is all about “uni-t y ” a n d “family.”

“We’re a l l i n this to-g e t h -er,” she said.

In ad-d i t i o n t o t h e u p s t a i r s space, there is an outdoor class-room on a wetland area of the campus, funded by a Straight A Grant in co-operation with the Kelly’s Island School District.

The 177,000-square-foot NEOMED Education and Wellness Center at the Northeast Ohio Medical University includes the the Sequoia Wellness Cen-ter, the Bio-Med Science Academy, conference services and other amenities.

Summa Health Systems will occupy about 7,000 square feet of space on the first floor of the building.

A pharmacy on the first floor, also slated to open in 2015, will be operated by Pharmacy Innovations, an affiliate of the university’s College of Pharmacy.

Tom Strauss, president and CEO of Summa, said Summa will offer primary care, non-emergency day-time walk-in care, corporate and employee health ser-vices, pharmacy consultation and physical therapy.

Dr. Jay Gershen, NEOMED president, said the NEW Center is the “central addition to our campus. The multi-use fa-cility cost $166 million, and none of that came from the state capital fund.”

The Sequoia Wellness Center has more than 600 members, most of them from the commu-nity.The center is run by Integrative Wellness Part-ners. Jim Ellis is executive vice president and managing director of Integrated Wellness Part-ners, a division of Signet Enterprises of Akron. Every NEOMED employee and student has a membership.

-John Eklund, Ohio State Senator

The newest public-private partnership at the Northeast Ohio Medical Univer-sity is the REDIzone.

“The REDIzone is ready,” declared Dr. Walter Horton, vice president of research

at NEOMED, as the Timken Innovation Corridor was unveiled. “We’re open for business.”The REDIzone, which stands for Research, Entrepreneurship, Discovery and Innova-

tion, is part of the Graduate and Research Education building that opened last year at NEOMED. The Timken Foundation of Canton sponsors the Timken Innovation Corri-dor that hosts the zone.

The corridor houses three companies — Crystal Technologies, which has its roots as a spinoff of the Liquid Crystal Institute at Kent State University; EP Technologies, a spinoff of Gojo Indus-tries in Akron; and Summa Health System, which plans to use the area as a home base for its re-search activity in the area.

“This is a really a momentous time,” said Dr. Jay Gershen, president of NEOMED.He said the REDIzone has allowed NEOMED to double its research funding to $17 million. Ev-

ery $1 million in funding from the National Institute of Health, he said, brings 20 jobs to the area.“This kind of collaboration is going to create an atmosphere where early start-up companies want

to go,” sais State Senator John Eklund. “It’s going to provide a place for Ohio’s best and brightest. And when these start-up companies come, we’re going to turn around that phrase ‘brain drain’ and turn it into a brain gain.”

IT WAS A WHALE OF AN announcement.

Northeast Ohio Medical University in Rootstown un-veiled its first ever mascot in 2013. The winner, the Walking Whale, has its roots in research done at NEOMED about 20 years ago.

Dr. Jay Gershen, NEOMED president, said Nate, named from Ambulocetus natans, the scientific name for his species, would appear at “all important, appropriate university func-tions and events.” Such events include NEOMED’s 40th an-niversary celebration and the grand opening of new buildings on the campus.

The idea for the mascot, he said, came from students short-ly after NEOMED changed its name and officially became

Ohio’s 14th public university.“They decided that since

we’re a university, we needed a mascot just like all the other universities,” he said.

Before the new mascot came out to greet the crowd at an outdoor picnic at its unveiling, mascots of other area univer-sities came out. They included Flash from Kent State Universi-ty, Zippy from The University of Akron and Magnus from Cleve-land State University.

Then Nate came out. The bright blue mascot, wearing a white sailor’s cap, towered over the other mascots and barely fit under the door he exited.

Dr. Hans Thewissen, the NEOMED anatomy professor who first discovered the walking whale, assessed the mascot, say-ing “he looks a little different”

than the one he had discovered. The walking whale’s skeleton

hangs outside research labs on the campus. Faculty and stu-dents say it is decorated with a Santa hat every Christmas.

Thewissen said scientists knew that whales once walked the earth, but lacked evidence of the mammal walking on land until the discovery. The 49-mil-lion-year-old whale is believed to be the first of its kind to be discovered.

Thewissen, a paleobiologist, said he and his team discovered the fossil of the whale in Pak-istan in 1993, and Thewissen wrote a paper on it the follow-ing year. The Ambulocetus na-tans could walk as well as swim.

University officials also point to the whale as an evolution-ary symbol, saying it represents

NEOMED’s evo-lution into a health s c i e n c e s university.

The walk-ing whale , T h e w i s s e n said, is important in the study of anat-omy.

“The fossil of an animal is not much different from the anatomy of a hu-man, and animals are easier to study,” he said. The whales also are used in genetic re-search, he said.

“I really think it rep-resents NEOMED very well,” said medical stu-dent Ashley Byrne.
