The Johns Hopkins Berman Institute of 
Bioethics<http://www.bioethicsinstitute.org/> is proud to announce the 
endowment of its directorship – now to be known as the Andreas C. Dracopoulos 
Director – a transformational gift from the long-time Berman Institute 
supporter for whom it is named. “It’s my hope this will spur both the 
University and the Institute to take bioethics at Johns Hopkins to the next 
level," 
Dracopoulos<http://www.snf.org/en/about/_internal-pages/andreas-dracopoulos/> 
says.

The Berman Institute’s current and founding director, Prof. Ruth R. 
Faden<http://www.bioethicsinstitute.org/people/ruth-faden-4>, will be named the 
inaugural holder of the endowed directorship.   The formal installation will 
take place May 30, 2014.  Johns Hopkins University recognizes the Dracopolous 
Directorship as a contribution to Rising to the Challenge: The Campaign for 
Johns Hopkins<https://rising.jhu.edu/>, an effort to raise $4.5 billion, 
primarily to support students, faculty, and clinicians and interdisciplinary 
solutions to some of humanity's most important problems.
