Biography

Kean University ALL - Health Education

Online Professor, Top 40 Innovators in Education, "Godfather of Online Science," Former University Dean and Pharma VP
Dr. James W.
Brown
Designated "One of the Top 40 Innovators in Education"​ by the Center for Digital Education. I love teaching face-to-face or online and enjoy nurturing that next generation of college students to go on in science, health care or public health. I have been dubbed "The Godfather of Online Science" by Linda Jeschofnig CEO of Hands-On Labs, Inc. for my advocacy and pioneer work to delivering science courses completely online and opening the door to a science education through the world wide web.

I am a former college/university dean at OCC and NJCU, director of microbiology at Roche, vice president of a biotech corporation, and NJ Assistant Commissioner of Health.
