The Saward Lecture series honors the late Ernie Saward, MD, who established a Kaiser Permanente Northwest research program in the 1960s that became the Center for Health Research. This annual lecture, which has been presented free to the Portland community since 1989, receives support from Kaiser Permanente Northwest Community Health.
