The John F. Anderson Memorial Lectureship was established in 1955 by John F. Anderson, M.D., an 1895 graduate of the UVA School of Medicine and a leading figure in infectious disease, public health, and pharmaceutical research.

Anderson Memorial Lectureship Trust’s support for all Medical Center Hours in the 2012-2013 academic year except those otherwise designated.
