The Meredith Maher Peterson Memorial Lecture Series
Princeton HealthCare System is pleased to introduce the Meredith Maher Peterson Memorial Lecture Series. This new series will provide women with critical information about breast healthcare while building awareness of the importance of prevention and early detection.
The series is named in honor of Meredith Maher Peterson, a passionate supporter of breast cancer research and women’s health education. As a member of The Auxiliary of University Medical Center at Princeton and by serving as co-chair of A November Night in 2005, Meredith helped raise more than $300,000 toward the establishment of University Medical Center at Princeton’s Breast Health Center. She also served as co-chair of the Breast Health Center Community Advisory Committee and supported the Young Survival Coalition. In addition, Meredith was the largest individual and team fundraiser for the 13th annual Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation Race for the Cure in 2006, raising more than $60,000. Tragically, in 2006 at the age of 36, Meredith lost her personal battle with breast cancer. However, she has left behind a legacy of community activism to ensure that women are better educated about and have greater access to critical breast healthcare resources. This lecture series will take place six times per year and will be held at University Medical Center at Princeton’s newly opened Breast Health Center.
