UMU's leadership is in transition; not sure how best to represent that in the article. Typically in an article such as this there is mention of recent top administrators. In this case, Dr. David R. Smith, M.D., has served as President from 2006 until present. He reportedly 'intends to submit his resignation', but there is not yet any official notice that this has taken place; this may well just be a matter of time.

The following entries were removed from the "Notable alumni and professors" section of the article, due to lack of reliable, third-party sources verifying notability. This is not to suggest that the individuals are not notable, simply that additional documentation is needed for inclusion with the article.
Robert B. Barlow, Ph.D. - Professor of Ophthalmology, Director of Center for Vision Research
Robert Rohner, M.D. - Professor of Pathology, Philip Armstrong Award Winner
David P. Schenkein, M.D. - Senior Vice President Clinical Hematology/Oncology at Genentech Inc. (San Francisco, CA); Former Senior Vice President of Oncology Clinical Development at Millennium Pharmaceuticals Inc. and developer of cancer drug Velcade
Elinor Spring-Mills, Ph.D. - Distinguished Service Professor of Anatomy and Cell Biology; one of the first females to ever be awarded a doctorate degree from Harvard Medical School

I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of State University of New York Upstate Medical University's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.
I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. AnomieBOT⚡04:46, 30 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
