\"Joseph<\/a>Dr. Joseph Larner<\/strong> (January 9, 1921 \u2013 January 28, 2014) served as Chairman of the Pharmacology Department from 1969-1990. He led a distinguished career, garnering numerous scientific awards including the Banting Medal for Scientific Achievement in Diabetes Research, the Virginia Lifetime Achievement Award in Science, and he was elected to the Institute of Medicine of the National Academy of Sciences. Dr. Larner\u2019s notable research was focused on the study of insulin activity with the goal of improving diabetes treatments and, in 1974, he founded the UVa Diabetes Center for Research. The Larner family\u2014wife Frances and sons Andrew, James, and Paul\u2014endowed the Joseph Larner Annual Memorial Lecture in Pharmacology to explore the pervasive role of metabolism\/cell signaling in human disease. Gifts from the family, as well as Dr. Larner\u2019s UVa colleagues and other scientists who respected his work, provide support for this annual lecture and continue Dr. Larner\u2019s legacy at the School of Medicine.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
