Libow, MD, (born December 26, 1933) is an academic physician and medical practitioner who is known for his contributions to the creation of Geriatric Medicine. He holds expertise in areas including Alzheimer Disease and Dementia Related Behavioral Disorder [1]. He is widely regarded as the “Creator of US Geriatric Medicine”.[2][3]. BiographyLeslie S. Libow was born on December 26, 1933 in Brooklyn, New York. He attended James Madison High School. While there, he was part of a group of students called the Go-Getters, a group that included fellow classmate U.S. Supreme Court Associate Justice Ruth Bader Ginsberg [4]. Libow attended Brooklyn College, where he majored in Biology with sub-interest in sociology. He graduated first in his class from Chicago Medical School in 1958. A one year medical residency at the Sinai related Bronx Veterans Admin. Hospital was completed. Libow then worked at the NIH (National Institute of Health) for three years. CareerDr. Libow spent 3 years at the National Institutes of Health (NIH) as a participant in a group of scientists self-labeled “The Human Aging Group” [5]. These scientists focused on initial, five and ten year follow-up of healthy elderly survivors – using measurements of functions in the 50 optimally healthy subjects studied. The longitudinal study continued with the survivors being again studied 5 and 10 years later. Their interdisciplinary study entitled “Human Aging: A Biological and Behavioral Study” included measurements of several vital functions as reflected in optimally healthy older men.[6] The measurements included: cholesterol, thyroid, kidney function, blood pressure, pulmonary function, and electroencephalography (EEG). The entire study was published in a 2 volume book: Human Aging a Biological and Behavioral Study {{DOI|10.1037/10776-000}}. Dr. Libow started the first Geriatric fellowship at City Hospital Center in New York (a Mount Sinai School of Medicine affiliate) in 1966. [7] [8] It was America’s first “Board Approved” Residency and Fellowship in Geriatric Medicine.[9]. This Residency Fellowship in Geriatrics served as a model for the medical school training and was followed by new Geriatrician training programs at Harvard, Yale, UCLA, UFL, etc—to a total of 20 such programs. The Geriatricians produced in these programs helped develop new programs at teaching hospitals. Libow created the new use of selected nursing home beds by converting staff and admitting criteria to focus on recently hospitalized patients now requiring time in rehabilitation programs. These new units came to be called “sub-acute” units, and there are now huge numbers of such units throughout our nation. Dr. Libow developed the clinical and medical teaching component for the innovative full Department of Geriatrics and Adult Development at Mount Sinai School of Medicine (created in 1982) aimed solely at medical students and beginning with their first year of medical school following graduation from college. Dr. Libow has mentored hundreds of trainees, many of whom have gone on to devote their careers to caring for frail older adults.
