Eaton E. (Ed) Lattman has been named chief executive officer and executive director of the Hauptman-Woodward Medical Research Institute, in Buffalo, N.Y.

Lattman will oversee all of the institute’s business and administration and help its 24 Ph.D.-level faculty members find research support and build on existing collaborations locally, nationally, and internationally. Lattman succeeds George T. DeTitta, who returned to full-time work in his Hauptman-Woodward lab in April of this year. Walter A. Pangborn has led the institute in the interim.
