This annual lecture began in 2021 to inspire, interrogate, and explore the intersection of the ideas of healthcare and public health, and to spur actions that move these ideas forward together. This lectureship was created by donations to honor the career of Dr. Russell Harris, an internationally renowned expert in prevention who, with others, helped educate a generation of MD-MPH students. Dr. Harris wanted the lecture to honor all faculty and students who have walked back and forth across Columbia Street over the years to bridge the worlds of healthcare and public health.
