Hackensack Meridian Health’s Med School Partnership with Seton Hall


A pharmaceutical industry executive with extensive experience helming top companies such as Ivax and Zenith Laboratories, John Klein serves as chairman of Cambridge Therapeutics, based in Teaneck, New Jersey. In addition to his other professional and civic responsibilities, John Klein serves as a trustee of Hackensack Meridian Health Hospitals.

Early in 2018, Hackensack Meridian School of Medicine at Seton Hall University began accepting applications for positions in its inaugural class set to matriculate that summer. The school, a partnership between the health care system and Seton Hall, is New Jersey’s only private medical school. It was established in response to the dearth of physicians in New Jersey and the growing contemporary focus on individual wellness and community-centered care.

In addition to their organization’s work on the Seton Hall educational partnership, members of the Hackensack Meridian Health Board of Trustees have supported the establishment of a scholarship endowment fund of $100 million to aid medical students in need.
