He is also an Adjunct Professor in theDepartment of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine and the Centre for Blood Research at the University of British Columbia. Currently, he serves as Vice Chair of the Scientific and Standardization Committees of the International Society of Thrombosis and Hemostasis and previously served as Chair of the Perioperative and Critical Care Committee. He obtained his medical degree from the University of Miami, where he was a resident in internal medicine, followed by an Anesthesiology residency at the Massachusetts General Hospital/Harvard Medical School, where he was Chief Resident, and completed fellowships in Respiratory Intensive Care and Cardiac Anesthesiology. Before Duke, he was Professor and Deputy Chair for Research at Emory University School of Medicine. Dr Levy is currently an Associate Editor for the Journal of Thrombosis and Haemostasis, an Editor for the European Heart Journal: Cardiovascular Pharmacology, and on the Editorial Board for the Journal of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, and previously served as an Executive Editor for Anesthesiology. His current clinical and research interests include anticoagulation and its reversal, therapeutic strategies to prevent and treat coagulopathy and acute inflammation in critically ill patients and extracorporeal life support, applications of recombinant and purified protein concentrates for treating bleeding and inflammation, and therapeutic approaches to anaphylaxis. He is the author of over 600 publications on PubMed, with over 100,000 citations, an h-index of 112, and an i10-index of 500. He is also fluent in French and conversational in Spanish and Japanese.

The overarching theme of my research is to develop a fundamental and quantitative understanding of the factors that determine the chemical composition of the atmosphere. I am particularly interested in delineating natural and anthropogenic impacts on the chemical composition of the atmosphere, and in exploring the potential for these impacts to affect natural ecosystems. My research involves the use of numerical models in conjunction with remote and insitu measurements of atmospheric composition.
