Raymond A. Cohlmia, D.D.S., has resigned from his position as ADA's executive director
Dr. Cohlmia has served in the role since November 2021. During his four years as executive director, Dr. Cohlmia oversaw the development of a transformative business plan; integration of the Forsyth Institute — the world leader in oral health research — to form the ADA Forsyth Institute; and expansion of collaborative relationships with dental academia and the dental industry.
“I am very proud of my tenure as ADA executive director, and my love for the dental profession is unwavering,” Dr. Cohlmia said. “The ADA and the profession are synonymous and never should be separated. We have laid an incredible foundation to propel the ADA forward for the future. ADA members are committed to our professional values and to improving the lives of the people we serve every day. I am grateful for the incredible opportunity to have served and been part of the transformational change at the ADA. I’ve never been more excited about the future of the American Dental Association.”
The board has named Elizabeth Shapiro, D.D.S., J.D., as interim ADA executive director, and she will immediately assume leadership of ADA operations while the board conducts a search for a successor to serve as executive director. Dr. Shapiro has been serving as the ADA chief of governance and strategy. |
