Patrick D. Kenan Lectureship
The annual Kenan Lectureship was established in 2011 and highlights the importance of mentorship in resident education and faculty development. Patrick D. Kenan was a faculty member in the Division of Otolaryngology, Head and Neck Surgery from 1963 to 2002 and he was fiercely committed to both medical student and resident education. Each year, a faculty member nominates a mentor for the lectureship who was instrumental in their own education and early academic career.
