Dr. Michael Rein passed away at home on December 5, following a 2 ½ year battle with pancreatic cancer. He was born in Washington, DC, to Charles and Norma Rein, and he grew up in New York City. Michael graduated Magna Cum Laude from Harvard College in 1965 and from Harvard Medical School in 1969. His training in Internal Medicine and Infectious Diseases took place at Mount Sinai Hospital in New York, at the University of Virginia Medical Center, and at the Centers for Disease Control in Atlanta.
He joined the faculty of UVA Medical School in 1975, where his love of teaching and devotion to patient care guided his career until he retired as Professor of Medicine in 2008. He was a consultant to the World Health Organization, the National Institutes of Health, and the Centers for Disease Control. He was a member of many professional societies and served as President of the American Venereal Disease Association, Governor for Virginia of the American College of Physicians, and President of the Albemarle County Medical Society. He was the recipient of numerous teaching awards as well as national honors. In addition to editorial work for many medical journals, Michael was an author of more than 240 publications.
