The Gray Matters at Columbia Spring Benefit Luncheon took place on Tuesday, May 11, 2010 at The Plaza Hotel.  Donna Hanover returned as Mistress of Ceremonies and Special Guest Speaker Paula Zahn joined Jeffrey A. Lieberman, M.D., and Brian Fallon, M.D.  There were 340 guests in attendance.  This year, Gray Matters has selected the Columbia Lyme Center as one of the three recipients in the Department to benefit from this program. The monies raised will support a research fellow on a project in the Columbia Lyme Center.  The selection of Lyme Disease as one of the highlighted diseases this year is remarkable and a testimony to Columbia's recognition of the urgency of the Lyme epidemic and problem.
