Who is the Chancellor of LSUHSC?

• A. Dr. Amy Adams
• B. Dr. Steve Nelson
• C. Dr. Demertrius Porche
• D. Dr. Michael Lee

Answer: (B)

In this setting, the key idea is identifying the top executive who leads a university health sciences campus. The chancellor is the chief executive responsible for the campus’s overall leadership, including academic programs, research efforts, and clinical operations, and is appointed by the LSU Board of Supervisors to guide the institution’s strategic direction.

Dr. Steve Nelson holds that role, serving as the campus leader who oversees education, patient care partnerships, research initiatives, and the budget, while representing LSUHSC in formal settings. That’s why this name is the correct answer—the chancellor is the person who anchors the campus’s administration and mission.

The other individuals are associated with different roles within the university or hospital system, but they do not hold the chancellor position.
