Bernell Dalley, Ph.D.

Bernell Dalley, Ph.D. graduated from Brigham Young University with his Master of Science degree in 1970. He came to the newly established School of Medicine in 1974 with a plan to be on faculty for five years. When he arrived in Lubbock, the School of Medicine was housed at Drane Hall on the Texas Tech campus and there were only 40 medical students enrolled.

Throughout his years at the university, he has served as an associate professor of cell biology and anatomy, graduate faculty and associate dean of the Office of Admissions and Minority Affairs. He was the chair of the Joint Admissions to the Medicine Program Council for the State of Texas and was a member of the Liaison Committee on Medical Education Steering Committee.

Dalley has received numerous awards including the John Aure Buesseler Memorial Award in 2008, which he was voted for by graduating students. The 2012 School of Medicine class is the last Dalley recruited.

Lee has also served as an associate professor in the Department of Cell Biology & Biochemistry since 2001.
