Dr. Gillian Small is the current University Dean for Research at the City University of New York. She joined CUNY in 2001. Dr. Small is also a tenured full professor of Biology at City College of CUNY.

Dr. Small received her PhD in the Biological Sciences in 1983 from the University of Wolverhampton in England, where she also completed her undergraduate education in the Biological Sciences. She came to the US in 1985 to conduct postdoctoral research at the Rockefeller University in New York, in the laboratory of Nobel Laureate Dr. Christian DeDuve, a cytologist and biochemist. Dr. Small's research focus is organelle biogenesis and molecular regulation of lipid metabolism; she has published and lectured widely in this area.

Previously, Dr. Small served on the faculty at the University of Florida (1988), where she led her own independent research program to study peroxisome biogenesis and the molecular regulation of lipid metabolism. In 1992, she became a faculty member at Mount Sinai School of Medicine in New York, where she directed a laboratory as well as served as Director of the Interdisciplinary Graduate Program in Molecular, Cellular, and Developmental Biology.

At CUNY, Dr. Small has been instrumental in redesigning doctoral education in the sciences and in enhancing the University’s scientific research infrastructure. She established CUNY’s first Postdoctoral Program for postdoctoral fellows across the University and the Technology Commercialization office. She also played a key role establishing the Institute for Macromolecular Assemblies and the Institute for Sustainable Cities. She is overseeing the planning and programming of a new CUNY Advanced Science Research Center.
