His group has been funded by the National institute of Health for more than 30 years and have received more than 45 million dollars in funding. John Lambris and his family attended the event with other members of the Epirotes of Philadelphia. Professor Lambris hails from Epirus, Greece and has been living in the Philadelphia area for more than 20 years. He is also a member of the local chapter, “Omonia”. After thanking the members and attendees, Lambris spoke briefly about his research and then shifted his conversation to focus on the importance of the organization and giving to the Greek community.
