While many parts of medical education have changed rapidly over the past few years, other aspects seem remarkably static. This year's Holly Smith lecturer, Dr. Holly J. Humphrey, is an international leader in medical education who is currently President and CEO of the Josiah Macy Jr. Foundation. Her work has influenced the national dialogue in medical education in areas such as diversity and inclusion, mentoring, and professional identity formation. Dr. Humphrey will offer her views on the current status of medical education and how it needs to evolve to meet trainees’ and society’s needs.
The annual Holly Smith Visiting Professorship is the Department of Medicine’s most prestigious yearly lectureship. It is named for Lloyd Hollingsworth “Holly” Smith Jr., MD, a visionary physician-scientist whose uncompromising quest for excellence helped transform UC San Francisco into the world-renowned institution it is today. Smith, who passed away in 2018, served 35 years as chair of the Department of Medicine and associate dean at the UCSF School of Medicine.
Holly J. Humphrey, MD, MACP, is president of the Josiah Macy Jr. Foundation, the only U.S. foundation whose focus is health professions education. Prior to her current role, she served as Dean for Medical Education and as Internal Medicine Residency Program Director at The University of Chicago. She was selected as a favorite faculty teacher by graduating University of Chicago medical students more than 25 times. A pulmonary and critical care physician by training, she is an elected member of the National Academy of Medicine, a Master of the American College of Physicians, a Fellow of the Royal College of Physicians (London), and recipient of numerous other national and international awards.
