After being at the National Institutes of Health, he was then recruited to the University of California, San Diego where from 1968-1972 he was the founding Chair of the Department of Medicine, bringing John Ross, Jr. with him to be the founding Chief of Cardiology.

He has been recognized with several awards, including the Distinguished Scientist Award from American College of Cardiology, and has been honored with a couple of honorary degrees.
