Dr. Murray is an Emeritus professor of Pediatrics. He is still actively involved in the Neonatal biorepository, mentoring faculty, and conducting research on preterm birth and birth defects. Dr. Murray has a 40+ year career that included several honors and awards including being elected the 2013 President of the American Society for Human Genetics, as a Fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS) and to the National Academy of Medicine (NAM).

Fun Fact: Dr. Murray now spends much of his day walking his dog Howchi and tasting wild fruits and berries to see if they are safe/good (pokeberry-bad, thimbleberry-good, wild plum-bitter, elderberries-meh) and making jam from the very good ones (juneberry and black raspberry this year).
