Given the shared interests of our colleges in health and medicine, I am writing with special opportunities for College of Science faculty and students to engage with Dr. Kimberly Harmon, a distinguished leader in sports medicine, as our 2025 Bray Lecturer.
Dr. Harmon serves as the head football team physician and sports medicine section head at the University of Washington and Deputy Chief Medical Director for the NHL. Her groundbreaking research on sudden cardiac death in athletes has shaped collegiate sports medicine, and she has provided key advisory insights to the NCAA, NFL, NHL, and NBA. Learn more about Dr. Harmon here.
We invite you to three exciting events on April 8-9, listed below. Besides the main lecture, there are two moderated forums — one especially designed for students on careers in healthcare and sports medicine, and one for faculty and graduate students on research.
