Ramon and Victoria Lim

The Ramon and Victoria Lim Medical Science Lectureship Fund was created in 2004 with a generous gift from Drs. Ramon and Victoria Lim. The fund supports the visits to Iowa City of eminent scientists working in neuroscience and internal medicine. 

Ramon Lim, MD, PhD, is a University of Iowa professor emeritus of neurology and a researcher in the area of brain proteins and brain cell biology. Victoria Lim, MD, was a UI professor emeritus of internal medicine who studied endocrine disorders in patients with kidney disease. The Lims are long-time residents of Iowa City and members of the University community. In addition to their clinical and research work in medicine, the Lims are active supporters of the arts. Ramon Lim is an accomplished calligrapher and Vicky was a writer.

In Partnership with the Distinguished Biomedical Scholars Lecture Series.

The University Community honors the memory of Victoria Lim, who passed away in February of 2025. Memorial gifts can be made to the Ramon and Victoria Lim Medical Science Lectureship Fund at the University of Iowa Foundation (givetoiowa.org/lim).
