Inagural Lecture a Success

In September of 2014, in recognition of Brandon’s birthday and Childhood Cancer Awareness Month, the inaugural Brandon Carrington Lee Pediatric Palliative Care Grand Rounds Lecture was held. The Gorman Auditorium at MedStar Georgetown University Hospital was filled almost to capacity with physicians, residents, medical students, nurses and other healthcare professionals. Renowned pediatric palliative care specialist, Dr. Chris Feudtner, a pediatrician, epidemiologist, historian, and ethicist at The Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia and the University of Pennsylvania addressed the audience on the complex and emotionally-fraught situations that doctors often find challenging when working with the families of seriously ill children.
