C. Garrison Fathman is a Professor of Medicine and Division Chief of Immunology and Rheumatology at Stanford University School of Medicine. He is also the Associate Director of the Institute for Immunity, Transplantation and Infection and Director of the Center for Clinical Immunology at Stanford University. He was Founder and first-President of the Federation of Clinical Immunology Societies.[1] As Director of the CCIS, Dr. Fathman initiated a multidisciplinary approach to study and treat autoimmune diseases, including rheumatoid arthritis, multiple sclerosis, and insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus, and initiated several new approaches to education and community outreach.[2]

Academic career

Dr. Fathman received his M.D. from Washington University School of Medicine 1969. He subsequently completed his residency training at Dartmouth Affiliated Hospitals and completed a fellowship in immunology and rheumatology at Stanford University. Fathman then spent four years doing research, first as a clinical associate at the National Cancer Institute of the NIH, and then as a member of the Basel Institute of Immunology in Switzerland. He returned to the United States to join the faculty at the Mayo Clinic Medical School in 1977 and was recruited back to Stanford University in 1981.[3]

Research

Dr. Fathman has been and continues to be a leading figure in the field of clinical immunology.[2] His research centers on a molecular and cellular understanding of CD4 T cell responsiveness in mice and man.[4]

Professional organizations

Fathman is a member of many professional organizations, including the American Association of Immunologists (AAI) and the Association of American Physicians (AAP), and is past council member of the American Society for Clinical Investigation (ASCI) and past president of the Clinical Immunology Society (CIS). He was associate editor of the Annual Review of Immunology for 25 years and serves on the editorial boards of numerous scientific journals. Fathman has chaired a variety of national and international professional meetings, served on NIH study sections and numerous blue ribbon panels and has written more than 300 articles on his research in molecular and cellular immunology.[4]
