Donald T. Moore, MD, Endowed Lecture

Duke Ob/Gyn will present the "2021 Donald T. Moore, MD, Endowed Lecture: The Maternal Health Care Crisis for Women of Color" on April 28, with a lecture at 7:30 a.m., and panel discussion at 8:30 a.m. This event will honor the legacy of esteemed physician, educator and community leader, Donald T. Moore. Following the evolving desegregation of Duke Hospital, Moore had a tremendous impact as the first African American Fellow in the School of Medicine when he was asked to join the Department of Ob/Gyn at the invitation of Chairman Roy T. Parker. He also served as chief of Ob/Gyn at Lincoln Hospital, which later became Lincoln Community Health Center, and trained many Duke residents, medical students and nurses.

Elizabeth Howell from the University of Pennsylvania will be the featured speaker; M. Kathryn Menard, UNC School of Medicine, Maria Small, of the Duke School of Medicine, and Katie Galbraith, of Duke Regional Hospital.
