A generous gift from Dr. Gerry Curatola, Class of 1983, and his wife, Georgia, will name the nurses’ station in the Bluestone Center for Clinical Research. The nurses’ station provides personnel and equipment to monitor the well-being of patients participating in clinical studies.

“I am extremely proud of the direction in which NYUCD is moving under Mike Alfano’s leadership,” said Dr. Curatola. “In fact, I have never been prouder of my alma mater. My gift is a token of that pride and, I hope, an example for other alumni who want to show their support for the vibrant educational, patient care, and research environment that exists today at NYUCD.”

In thanking Dr. Curatola for his gift, Dean Alfano said: “Gerry Curatola came back to NYUCD, saw the transformed college we have created together, and decided to become a part of it. By naming the nurses’ station, he is demonstrating his commitment to NYUCD’s future as a research-intensive institution.”
