Raphael Carl Lee

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Raphael Lee (born 1949) is an American plastic and reconstructive surgeon,[1] biomedical engineer[2] and inventor. He is the Paul and Allene Russell Distinguished Service Professor Emeritus at the University of Chicago.[3] Dr. Lee has been elected to the National Academy of Engineering,[4] the International Academy of Medical and Biological Engineering,[5] and the American Academy of Arts and Sciences.[6]

Early life and education

[edit]

Raphael Carl Lee was born in 1949, in Sumter, South Carolina, to a family of physicians (his father, uncles, and cousins).[7] He graduated from high school in 1967, before enrolling in the University of South Carolina to study electrical engineering.[7] He obtained a Bachelor of Science in electrical engineering from the University of South Carolina in 1971. Lee then earned Medical Doctorate and Masters of Science in Biomedical Engineering in a coordinated graduate studies program Drexel University and Temple University School of Medicine in 1975. He completed his general surgery residency at University of Chicago in 1981.[8] He also completed a Doctor of Science degree program in electrical engineering Massachusetts Institute of Technology n 1979, with a specializing in Continuum Electromechanics. Dr. Lee went on to complete a residency in plastic surgery at Massachusetts General Hospital in 1983.[7][8][9] During his residencies, he received several awards for his research, including the Schering Scholar Award in 1978 from the American College of Surgeons.[10] Lee was also one of the early recipients of the MacArthur Fellowship Award in 1981,[11] and Searle Scholar Award in 1985. [12]

Career

[edit]

Dr. Lee practiced plastic surgery in Boston and Chicago and was regularly listed locally and nationally as a leading surgeon. [13] [14] He served as Director of Plastic Surgery at the West Roxbury VA Hospital (Massachusetts) , Director, University of Chicago's Burn Center, as well as for the Electrical Trauma Program.[15] In 2016 he was named a Senior Clinical Scholar Bucksbaum Institute for Clinical Excellence.[16] In 2020, he received the University of Chicago's Alumni Association Golden Key Award for outstanding service to the University.[17]

Dr. Lee has combined a clinical surgery practice[18] with his research efforts, primary in the areas of the molecular biophysics of cell injury resulting from physical trauma such as burns and electrical injury.[1][2] He has served on the faculties of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology Harvard University, University of Chicago and at the Chicago Electrical Trauma Research Institute. Mostly, that effort has been focused focuses on advancing the care of trauma injuries by mimicking a few basic behaviors of natural proteins that repair cell membrane. Several discoveries have emerged from that effort.[19] In addition, Dr. Lee's students and residents developed and published independently validated therapies to tc control scar formation after traumatic injury.[11][20] Lee is recognized for discovering the application of certain classes of amphiphilic block copolymers to mimic several fundamental protective processes of natural stress proteins in cells that perform cellular self-repair capability following injury.[21]

Dr. Lee is a member of the Association for Academic Surgery, Society of University Surgeons [3] and the American Surgical Association. He is Past-President of the Midwestern Association of Plastic Surgeons and the American Institute for Medical and Biological Engineering [4]. As a result of his scientific contributions, he was elected to Fellowship status of American Association for the Advancement of Science,[22] Biomedical Engineering Society,[23] Institute for Electrical and Electronic Engineers (IEEE) [24].. Lee has served on several National Institute of Health and National Science Foundation advisory committees and councils.[25]

Scientific Contributions

[edit]

In recent years, Lee's research focuses on developing methods to assess and improve patient fitness for surgery, development of therapies to enhance survival following trauma or radiation, and to integrate control systems science into pharmacology.[26] Dr. Lee received in the James Barrett Brown Award in I988 from the American Association of Plastic Surgeons for his discoveries regarding the multi-physical nature of electrical shock injuries.[27] Dr. Lee's patents[5] have led to the founding of Avocet Polymer Technologies, Inc.[6] , Maroon Biotech Corp [7], and Electrokinetic Signal Research, Inc.[8] all of Chicago, Illinois.
