Lillian Shutter, M.D. Memorial Lectureship
Dr. Lillian Shutter was a member of the class of 1932 of the University of Oregon School of Medicine, now the Oregon Health & Science School of Medicine. She had a distinguished career in medicine in California and wrote numerous articles on the effects of various drug regimens on different therapy modalities.
During her lifetime, Dr. Shutter established the Shutter Memorial Scholarship Fund in memory of her mother, who inspired her to go to medical school. Scholarship recipients were to be deserving female students of the medical school. She viewed these women as "her" students and treasured the letters that she received from them.
Funds from Dr. Shutter's estate were designated to support an annual lectureship in the Department of Physiology and Pharmacology at Oregon Health & Science University.
