Wood Lecture
Wood Lecture
In 1996, Dr. Francis Pepper from Winston-Salem established the “Wood Fund for Advancement of Neuroradiology at UNC,” as well as an endowed Chair. The fund and Chair were established to honor the first Department of Radiology Chair at UNC and a pioneer neuroradiologist – Dr. Ernest Wood – and his wife. Income from the fund is used to support pilot research projects, the Annual Wood Memorial Lecture and a Spring Visiting Professorship.
