IHV Annual Marlene and Stewart Greenebaum Lecture
Since 2004, the late Marlene and Stewart Greenebaum sponsored an annual lecture series hosted by the Institute of Human Virology (IHV) at the University of Maryland School of Medicine. Although they have passed, the IHV continues the lecture in their honor.
Each year, IHV's faculty invite leaders in the field of human disease to present this prestigious lecture before IHV and campus leaders, students, faculty and staff.
Speakers include persons who have made substantial scientific contributions and focus on bettering the human condition.
