The 2024 Distinguished Education Lecture by Russell Ledet, MD, PhD

Last year, I wanted to present this Distinguished Education Lecture by Dr. Russell Ledet, MD, PhD, given during Martin Luther King Jr. Celebration of Human Rights week. It took a while for my message to the University of Iowa to get through channels, but I want to thank Audra M. King, the Administrative Services Coordinator for the Office of Student Affairs and Curriculum in the University of Iowa Carver College of Medicine for her help in getting it into a YouTube format that allows the general public to see and hear Dr. Ledet’s presentation.

I wrote a post in February last year about how impressed I am with Dr. Ledet as a leader. Now you can hear him tell his own inspirational story.

Bootless II: Dr. Russell Ledet’s Story

Recall that I had been checking to see if the Distinguished Education Lecture given by Dr. Russell Ledet, MD, PhD on January 17, 2024 during the MLK Celebration of Human Rights would be available for the general public. While somebody may be working on that, I managed to find Dr. Ledet’s YouTube, entitled “Bootless II.” I think it’s a great distillation of his major theme.
