________________________ART_______________________________
Why a Second Career in Art?
My great granduncle, Rafael Eiroa, was an artist in the late XIX century Spain. One of his paintings was in my parents’ home. It was a middle age woman sitting in a dilapidated straw chair. Her eyes were unfixed and gazed into space. It was almost as if she was waiting to catch the opportunity she did not have. Every night I fell to sleep thinking about her, about opportunities, the future, and most definitively that I wanted to paint like my uncle Rafael.
After the Spanish Civil war, my family like many others immigrated to Argentina looking for the freedom they did not have. I still remember vividly those 21 days crossing the ocean aboard the steamship Buena Esperanza (Good Hope). My great granduncle’s large canvas was carefully removed from the frame by my father, rolled and stored into a trunk labeled “memories from Spain”.
Many years had passed before my mother decided to open the trunk. The canvas was severely damaged. I was a teenager and had forgotten the woman sitting in a chair. Nevertheless, my parents knowing my interest for art suggested that I repair her. I bought oils and brushes and I did it! I knew then what I wanted to become. But when I told my father about my desire to enter the school of art he said “study son, you will always have time to paint”.
I became a physician and soon after graduation I moved to the USA with my wife and daughter looking for freedom and opportunities, like my parents did. It has been a great 40 years journey but I never found time to paint like my father said. Thus, I left medicine and science at age 60 to find time to paint. My youngest son Rafael after reading this statement he smiled and firmly said “I will start a career in art this fall semester”. If I finish wanting to paint like my uncle Rafael and my son Rafael, I would say it is not a bad way to end.

1986 -‐ 1991 Professor of Medicine, SecUon Head of Endocrinology and Metabolism and Director of the University Diabetes Center, East Carolina University School of Medicine, Greenville, North Carolina
The Division of Endocrinology and Metabolism was founded. Six faculUes were recruited
and mentored and all became funded by the NIH. A comprehensive Fellowship Program
was approved. The ECU Diabetes and Obesity Center was established. Dr. J. F. Caro became Program Director of the “ECU Diabetes Program Project”, the largest NIH award in the history of the University. Basic research discoveries were made such as mechanism(s) of IRTK defects in liver, muscle and liver from humans with diabetes and clinical research observaUons were made such as that the gastric bypass surgery prevent diabetes by 40 folds in people with pre-‐diabetes and reverse diabetes in more than 80 percent of paUents for more than 10 years.
1991 -‐ 1996 Magee Professor of Medicine and Chairman of the Department, Jefferson Medical College of Thomas Jefferson University, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania
The Department of Medicine tripled its NIH funding and moved from the middle third to the upper third of NIH ranking. The residency program became the largest in the State with most house staff elecUng a career on primary care. Out paUent encounters tripled and hospital’s paUent duraUon of hospitalizaUon decreased by half. The budget of the Department conUnued generaUng overage for program development. All this was achieved without a significant increase in FTEs. This is what our Dean called “producUvity without expansion”
1996 -‐ 2008 Vice President, Endocrine Research and Clinical InvesUgaUon and Vice President of Global Diabetes Care. Lilly Research Laboratories, Eli Lilly & Comp, Lilly Corporate Center, Indianapolis, IN
The focus was on drug discovery from hypothesis generaUon in the laboratory to prove of concept in phase 2 clinical trials. The effort involved a heavily matrix organizaUon with chemistry, toxicology, ADME, biology, clinical pharmacology, markeUng, business, etc. More than 40 compounds were discovered that fulfilled all FDA requirements to enter clinical trials. The endocrine porlolio transformed from only Insulin to a more complete porlolio with several INDs and NDAs sUll in clinical trials from this decade’s drug discovery pipeline.
