The first lecture was held by Leroy Hood in 2001, and other lecturers include among other Edvard Moser in 2011, Françoise Barré-Sinoussi in 2014 and Fred "Rusty" Gage in 2017.

The lecture is commonly held in May/June. Read more about the awards and the award winners on the Norwegian website: Falch-priser og forelesning | Det medisinske fakultet | UiB
