Greenberg-Williams Lectureship

Named for Martin Greenberg, M.D., and Stephen Williams, M.D., the Greenberg-Williams Lectureship features nationally leading figures in the bioethics and medical humanities with a special emphasis on health care for rural and underserved populations.

Topics include not only bioethical issues but also the arts, literature and religion as they apply to an understanding of medicine, illness and human well-being. Support for the lectureship is made possible through a gift to the Dr. Martin Greenberg fund, established by Dr. Greenberg’s family after he passed away in 2021.
