Dr. John Gallin, longtime director of the National Institutes of Health’s research hospital, has been moved to a new role months after a report claimed the Clinical Center prioritized research over patient safety.

In a newly created dual position, Gallin will serve as NIH’s associate director for clinical research and chief scientific officer of the hospital, effective immediately. He will remain director of the Clinical Center until a new CEO is selected. The leadership changes followed a report triggered by a 2015 incident that forced the clinic’s pharmacy to close. Two vials of medicine mixed for patients were found to contain fungus. The Clinical Center is the largest hospital in the world dedicated solely to clinical research.
