Join us for the annual Philadelphia General Hospital (PGH) Lecture Series, followed by Neumann’s sixth Graduate Nursing White Coat Ceremony, professional poster presentations, and a luncheon.

The 2026 PGH Lecture will feature Linda Laskowski Jones, MS, RN, APN, FAAN, a nationally recognized nursing leader and speaker. She will present "Lessons Learned from Wolves," which focuses on leadership, teamwork, communication, and key insights leaders and teams can draw from the dynamics of a wolf pack. Linda’s message extends well beyond healthcare and is especially relevant to anyone in a leadership role.

Immediately following the lecture, our Graduate Nursing White Coat Ceremony will begin at 10:00 AM to recognize our Class of 2027 Nurse Practitioner students as they prepare to enter the clinical portion of their graduate education. Professional poster presentations by the MSN Class of 2026 will begin at 11:30 AM in the Mirenda Center Lobby, followed by a luncheon at 12:15 PM.
