Dr. Van Dunn, board members of our institutions, faculty, special guests, staff, and friends, on behalf of the BU medical campus and its component institutions - the School of Medicine, Boston University Medical Center Hospital, Boston City Hospital, the Goldman School of Graduate Dentistry - I am pleased to welcome you to these field hearings of the U.S. Senate Committee on Labor and Human Resources. We are particularly pleased to welcome Senator Kennedy, our outstanding and distinguished Senator, who has been a strong supporter of biomedical research. A special welcome also goes out to Dr. Bernadine Healy, who has been a remarkably effective leader of the NIH and who has advanced many important women´s health research initiatives during her tenure. At this medical campus, we have had a long-term interest in women´s health and in clinical and research programs related to it These have included programs in heart disease, cancer, osteoporosis, women´s health, family violence, and for example, the Framingham Heart Study was one of the first epidemiologic studies in the country to include women in a study population and to follow them for many years. I would like at this point to introduce President John Silber, who will bring introductory welcoming remarks from the university. Dr. Silber. Mr. Silber. We are honored at Boston University to be the location of this hearing of the Senate Committee, and we want to thank Senator Kennedy for coming here for his presentation. And we want to also welcome Dr. Healy. Her concerns have very much been the concerns of Boston University. As many of you know, Boston University School of Medicine merged with the Women´s Medical College some years ago on its founding, and we have admitted women and taught women as physicians from the very start.
