Joseph H. Ogura, MD, was a member of the Washington University School of Medicine from 1948 to 1982. He served as Lindburg Professor and Head of the Department of Otolaryngology and Otolaryngologist-in-Chief. He was a member of 30 professional societies and held presidencies in the American Society of Head & Neck Surgery, the American Laryngeal Society and the Triological Society.
The endowment for the Ogura Lectureship was established in 1982 in his honor. Support for for the lectureship is raised through his grateful patients, friends, colleagues and graduates.
In 1986, the Resident Research Day was added to this program in appreciation of these outstanding men and women.
