A Special Address with President Mark Schlissel: 20th Annual Raymond W. Waggoner Lectureship on Ethics and Values in Medicine
Sponsored by the Department of Psychiatry
University of Michigan President Mark Schlissel, M.D., Ph.D., will present this year’s 20th annual Waggoner lecture, which will be held on Wednesday November 4th, 2015 in Ford Auditorium, UH at 4:00 p.m.
Dr. Mark S. Schlissel, in addition to being President of the University, holds a professorship of microbiology and immunology, and internal medicine within the UM Health System as well as a professorship of molecular, cellular, and developmental biology within the College of Literature, Science, and the Arts.
Schlissel received his M.D. and Ph.D. from the Johns Hopkins School of Medicine in 1986 through the Medical Scientist Training Program. After completing a residency in Internal Medicine at Johns Hopkins Hospital he continued his postdoctoral research fellowship at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. He served as a faculty member at Johns Hopkins from 1991-1999, worked as a Professor in the Department of Molecular and Cell Biology at UC Berkeley and then was Dean of Biological Sciences in the College of Letters & Science from 2008-2011. Prior to coming to Ann Arbor, Schlissel served as provost at Brown University from 2011-2014.
Dr. Schlissel’s prior experience and extensive accolades in the field of medicine make him a perfect candidate to speak at the 20th lecture. He will be the third U-M President to give this address.
In 1996 the Waggoner lectureship was created in honor of the late Dr. Waggoner, emeritus professor and past chairman of the department of psychiatry, who throughout his career and to all who knew him, exemplified the highest standards of integrity and ethics. Dr. Schlissel most worthily epitomizes the spirit and purpose of the Lectureship.
The esteemed lectureship is an annual event to recognize Dr. Waggoner’s enormous contributions to the University of Michigan medical center and to the profession, and to promulgate his interest in medical ethics.
Additional information regarding the details of the lecture will be available as the date approaches. For more information, please contact:
