Gallagher Lectures

The Gallagher Lectures honor J. Roswell Gallagher, MD, FSAHM, the founding president of the Society for Adolescent Health and Medicine. The lectures were designed to provide a forum for outstanding speakers to address the full spectrum of adolescent medicine’s concerns: the biological, the psychological, and the social.

The Gallagher Lecture is typically the opening keynote of the SAHM Annual Meeting.
