The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill is recognizing 119 UNC Lineberger staff and faculty members who will be celebrating a service milestone this year.

In all, they have worked 1,485 service years collectively, and 10 have worked at UNC for a quarter century or longer: Shelley Earp, MD, 45 years; Ralph Baric, PhD, and Georgette Dent, MD, 35 years; William Marzluff, PhD, Teresa Nuttall, David Ransohoff, MD, and Alexander Tropsha, PhD, 30 years; and Robert Duronio, PhD, Verita Hinton and Otto Zhou, PhD, 25 years.

“The innovative, groundbreaking research we conduct and the compassionate, life-saving care we provide would be not possible without the truly exceptional people we are recognizing this year,” said Wendy Sarratt, DrPH, associate director, Human Resources and Employee Relations. “They literally have dedicated millions of hours over the years to advance our mission to end the burden of cancer in North Carolina and beyond.”
