Oliver H. Smith Memorial Lecture

Please join us for our 27th annual Oliver H. Smith Memorial Lecture honoring the memory of Dr. Oliver H. Smith, a faculty member in the department from 1963-1985. The seminar series was established by Oliver’s family who has continued to support this and other important departmental programs. Previous Smith Lectures have included three Nobel Laureates: Dr. Elizabeth Blackburn (1993), Dr. Richard Roberts (2001), and Dr. Thomas Steitz (2002).

This year’s presenter will be Dr. Roberto Kolter, from the Department of Microbiology and Immunobiology at Harvard Medical School, who will present a talk entitled “The Chemistry of Bacterial Development”. The 2013 Smith Lecture will be given at 3:00 p.m. on April 18, 2013.
