Dr. Mark Foreman is the 4th John L. and Helen Kellogg Dean of Nursing at Rush. He has been active in clinical geriatric research for almost 30 years, and has generally participated in multidisciplinary, multi-site research. Most of Foreman’s research has consisted of multidisciplinary teams (nursing, medicine, pharmacy, epidemiology among others) studying the epidemiology, natural history, recognition and long-term outcomes of delirium in hospitalized older adults.
More recently, Foreman has been a member of an interdisciplinary team [nursing and engineering] funded by the National Science Foundation to develop a multi-modal (vision, speech, and haptics) communication interface between an older person and an assistive robot. Foreman has mentored several pre and postdoctoral fellows many of who were supported by T32, F31, or other research training support.
Previously, he was Professor and Chairperson, Adult Health and Gerontological Nursing, Rush University College of Nursing. Prior to that, he was Professor, and Associate Dean for Nursing Science Studies, at the University of Illinois at Chicago College of Nursing.
