Mansbach lecture focuses on diabetes, cardiovascular disease

March 21, 2008

NORFOLK—An overflow crowd turned out March 19 to hear physician-scientist Jerry Nadler, M.D., talk about the link between diabetes and cardiovascular disease at the 2008 Harry H. Mansbach Endowed Lecture. A nationally renowned expert in diabetes and the cardiovascular complications of diabetes, Nadler will join the EVMS faculty on July 1 to serve as Chair of the Department of Internal Medicine. He will also hold the Harry H. Mansbach Endowed Chair in Internal Medicine, an academic honor named for one of the founders of EVMS.

The children of Harry Mansbach started the lecture to honor their father. Listening in at this year's lecture are, from left, Dr. Charles Mansbach, (who gave the Mansbach lecture in 2007), his wife, May Lynn, Tom Mansbach, and Sally Mansbach Herman.

Dr. Nadler said that excessive weight is one of the greatest risk factors for the development of diabetes and cardiovascular disease.
